Teen could never enjoy life because their mom is the kind of person who sues porn sites rather than having a conversation about masturbation and sexual health with her child.
FTFY
She put him in the fucking public eye for what all teenagers, no matter what, do. Like, this is how you get an incel, or worse. Right? Shame on this woman.
It would be the responsibility of the state to block sites that offend their fragile egos.
Can he no longer enjoy life cause he logged into chaturbate.
Or did he never enjoy life, because his moms a miserable kind of cunt that announces to the world her sweet baby boy looked at THE PORNOGRAPHY and is stirring up a massive, baseless lawsuit over it, thus traumatizing the fuck out of him… which I imagine isnt the first time shes done so.
edit Whats the running bet on if the kids even allowed to have a bedroom door?
The kid is going to be either 1) hateful or 2) replicate of his mom. He will no longer be normal.
Well the kid definitely can’t enjoy life now that his mom caught him and put him on blast in front of the entire nation.
She should give him a helping hand… Reddit style.
He would need to break his arms first.
yeah well the jerkmate called and they’re running out of you
my jerkmate is dead you monster
My condolences to your hand.
Sorry, just kidding.
“What’s the difference? You’re their all-time bestseller.” :D
Thanks to new proposals to require ID verification for porn sites, the jerkmate may very well be running out of yous soon.
If only there was some kind of system where minors are given rules to follow, and looked after by an authority figure that could steer them away from things that aren’t appropriate for them. For simplicity, these authority figures could even be adults that they are closely related to and live with.
Alas.
Mom is being responsible from protecting her children from filth. Respect.
She isn’t. After this lawsuit he will watch porn if he really wants to. She is wasting a bunch of her money for nothing. Money which she could invest in her family but is setting on fire instead.
Dumbass.
Thanks for showing me more porn sites!
let’s be real these companies are horrible and destroying the minds of millions of young men
I Jamaican dry rubbed off to swimsuit flyers when I was a kid, so at least my mind is safe.
I would argue that gambling sites and gacha games are much worse.
sure; maybe, maybe not. at least they don’t turn young men into womanizers with an unrealistic expectation of sexuality
The underage kid is using chaturbate to talk to live models, but of course people are hating the mom for being a lazy Karen.
Minors are their parents responsibility. If a kid is out at the park at 2am drinking with some kid who had an older sibling they stole or bought alcohol from, “there is more than 1 person at fault”. But the fact that YOUR kid was performing an illegal act and you are reporting it and claiming it is someone else’s fault is ridiculous. Who’s responsible for the boardwalk they accidentally catch on fire when trying to make s’mores by the lake? The parents. It is their job to make sure they aren’t watching porn DVDs if that is not the way they want their kids raised.
If the Internet used a metaphor like a mall, and your kid is caught crawling under stalls or into changing rooms hiding cameras at Victoria Secret, you shouldn’t allow your kid at the mall without supervision. That doesn’t mean the mall is a place minors can’t be, it means the guardians need to have educated the kids to not do such things, or be present to stop them. Kids will get on 18+ sites even if an ID is required. The kids would just make a pact at school to take a picture of every parents ID they could and share them with all their friends.
Poof now every kid has access again and everyone’s ID is being shared. So now is it the sites responsibility to figure out that mess or should the parents who’s identity has been stolen sue the other kids parents who used their ID to create an account. The only way you avoid that is by linking every email, phone number, and identification in one central government controlled and distributed to every company for free database. “For security reasons”.
Or maybe… We just tell guardians to guard their kids from the potential threats they can come across in their lives and prepare them for it. Web filters and programs are everywhere. Put a pamphlet at every school office and local library so parents know how to access them. It isn’t everyone else’s job to raise someone else’s kid, it’s their job.
It’s still her responsibility to make sure her kid uses the internet responsibly. I don’t have any desire to defend chaterbate (never used it, and don’t know much about it) but there are tons of harmful sites out there, forums, places like 4chan and 8chan which are likely even more damaging than some porn sites.
It isn’t the site’s responsibility to make sure you aren’t lying when you claim you’re over 18, unless you want every site to have all of your personal data.
I get the mom’s point that she is worried for his safet but like, that’s way too extreme, lol. Teens are eventually gonna be curious about it and learn about sex. There’s nothing wrong with fancying the opposite gender and masturbation as long as the teen doesn’t let the whole thing control his mind thus affecting his daily life if that makes any sense.
Wow safety… She must’ve put some effort into a web filter or something yeah? No? Shes just a dumb lazy Karen?
It’s that second part that becomes an issue. The whole point of childhood is that you’re not fully responsible for your own decisions. And the internet is very weird and bad about sex. Perhaps even moreso than it is weird and bad about everything else.
Nothing to do with safety, she wants a payout
Can you imagine the roasting this poor kid gets at school because of his insane mom?
I imagine something like this.
My thoughts as well.
Just let your kid masturbate in peace. WTF.
And/or you know, put a web filter / monitoring software for free on your devices that the kids have access to.
Android: Google Family Link, and many others if they aren’t trying to use Google products.
Apple has products as well. People just need to pay attention to their kids
The products suck. Google and apple don’t really have a monetary motivation to make them good. My kid easily gets around everything. And he is only 11. The best so far was a bark phone. They had to customize the operating system because google didn’t provide ways to lock things down. He still found a work around to play music on the talk and text only phone. Only had it a week. There just isn’t profit in it. So teach your kids about the realities of the web or they will find out themselves.
I highly recommend Qustudio. It works on phone and PC, and allows you to customise exactly what is monitored or blocked so you can keep an eye on things in an age appropriate way.
We started monitoring after we found out our 12 year old daughter was catfishing a 19 year old boy. He had no idea and after we explained that she could literally ruin his life, and made her tell him her age he noped out of there. (Wisely.)
At first we had it set to monitor everything, report all searches, all app downloads, block porn, etc.
Yes she was able to get around certain features, like when she was young we had the phone locked past midnight… But it logs when it’s in use, so we then had a talk the next day and took away the phone or PC if needed.
As she got older we removed the block on all websites, and stopped monitoring any messages. We kept the software on to let us know when she was using her devices because she would often be up until 3am on her phone on a school night and we would then have a conversation about it.
We removed it when she was 17 or 18.
I currently pay for qustodio. He can pown that thing in so many ways it isn’t funny. I have had multiple conversation with thier support, and usually the answer is that they can’t do anything about that because android doesn’t allow them to. For the pc it is windows of course, and they allow even less. Given the age of your kid now, there may not have been as many youtube videos back then explaining how to get around these parental controls. But there are now.
I have a technical background, so I can understand the things he is doing. Like I know what a vpn is, and how it can be used. So I can tell him that if he installs one there will be punishments. But most parents wouldn’t even know what it is, and if they got an alert about it, would probably believe whatever story thier kid told them about it.
And don’t get me started on the horrible parental controls on the switch. And roku effectively has none (they only work on the roku channel).
If a kid has any ambition, they can get around the vast majority of controls. And if the parent is not technical, they have no chance of really stopping a kid who wants to access something.
Thanks for sharing! A lot of it I saw was about people not locking down phones so kids had access to uninstall and reinstall apps to bypass blocks. Which if the app store / play store is locked to a parents Apple ID, unless the kid knows their password they shouldn’t be able to reinstall the apps. But all the same I agree there will in the end be a way to get around if they try hard enough. That said, what’s to stop someone just installing a 3rd party app store and using that, not sure. Unless the parental controls block .apk files and such.
If you don’t mind me asking, why were you trying to block music though? I would imagine if you block everything, they have more reason to try to find work arounds. If they have access to music and videos that are just filtered for porn/lewd or what not content, they have less reason to try to find work arounds and are more likely to comply, especially if the punishments for being caught finding a work around is high.
This was literally the first thing I thought when I read the headline.
Nelson (from Simpsons): “Ha ha!”
Seriously, who wants to bet this kid ends up disowning her, or ending himself as a result. The bullying would be fucking insane for that. National news over porn.
Note that under the Kansas bill, it appears that depictions of homosexuality also qualify as also needing to be locked behind an age gate. Like, not “homosexual sex”, but homosexuality.
Don’t look, kids! According to Kansas lawmakers, this is pornography.
Images and text depicting gay affection could be swept up by age-verification bill
A same-sex couple exchanges rings at a marriage ceremony. You might think it’s a sweet moment. But should we be protecting children from seeing it? (Getty Images)
Take a good look at the photo just above these words. You should see two men exchanging rings at a same-sex marriage ceremony.
You’re also seeing, according to the Kansas Legislature, the kind of pornographic content that should be walled off from those under age 18 with age-verification software. That was the consequence — intended or not — of passing Senate Bill 394. All 40 state senators voted for the legislation, including 11 Democrats. In the House, nine Democrats joined Republicans to pass the bill, 92-31.
Max Kautsch, a Lawrence media lawyer, outlined some of the problems.
“The online age-verification bill expressly incorporates the definition of ‘harmful to minors’ that already exists in Kansas statutes, a phrase defined to mean ‘any description, exhibition, presentation or representation, in whatever form, of … acts of … homosexuality,’ ” he told me. “The term ‘homosexuality’ is undefined in the law, but it could include a wide swath of conduct between two persons of the same sex, including kissing, hand-holding, and other activities that would be considered ‘public displays of affection.’ ”
A couple of gentlemen exchanging rings, as shown above, would certainly qualify.
I encourage everyone to study the actual bill. From my perspective, it not only invokes a double standard against the brave Kansas LGBGTQ+ community but actively seeks to chill free expression. The proposed law applies to “any commercial entity” that shares content online, which means it could sweep up individuals trying to make money from a travel blog or small businesses that take wedding photos of same-sex couples. (As a nonprofit, Kansas Reflector appears exempt, which comes as a relief given my columns.)
Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW
Get this smut off my Lemmy page.
I think that this is okay, because this lemmy instance isn’t a commercial operation.
I guess that places like PinkNews and similar commercial media outlets might be open to lawsuits, though.
The first two use a lot of cancer advertising so im hoping they are getting done in by their own insistance on annoyance.
So parental responsibility now consists of suing for perceived damages of… ???
jacking off?
fuck’s sake. you don’t think they’ll pass a law against THAT do you?
give it time
A settlement of $100 for the extra laundry detergent over the next few years…
