Same. I don’t let my teens drive either, it’s too dangerous. They are also still breastfeeding twice a day, for the antibodies.


Teens can’t drive without hours of lessons, instructions, safety discussions, and a test. There are also restrictions on driving, such as speed limits, you must wear your seatbelt, etc. What preparation did your teen go through before you handed them a phone so you could disengage and be free of parenting, and what restrictions did you put on screens? (Oh wait, you didn’t; you want your kids out of your face as much as possible.)


How old are your teens? What are their academic, extra curricular and social accomplishments? I will put mine up against yours all day long. They are phenomenal people.


What does this mean? Like, Snapstreaks? Prom-posal from the captain of the lacrosse team?


You know what it means. I said what I said.


No, I actually don’t know what a social accomplishment means.


+1 NP. Same. “Social accomplishment”? PP sounds insane.


Now that’s peak DCUM: bragging about “social accomplishment” on a thread about banning of TikTok.

Get real, They’re still asleep


They were awake last night when it happened. They also knew it was coming. They are fine. I know, it stinks for you.


+1 but let’s also be real - they are going to migrate back to Insta and watch reels.

We've hit peak DCUM. Moms using social media to argue about their teens' use of social media.

I don’t think you want to do that, but thanks. How many languages do yours speak fluently, again? Mine were never on a platform that led to suicide, murder, addictions, kidnapping, drug use, dying from stupid pranks…


Mine speak 3 and none of those things are happening due to tik tok that’s instagram.

Nobody banned tik tok because of those reasons. Read a book or a news article instead of dcum.
