Also, why?

Banned shows:

  • Paw Patrol - Seems soulless, I haven't watched much, but there seems something very wrong about it. Intuitively, I feel like my kid shouldn't watch it (though, I can could be convinced I'm wrong, if I am)
  • Cocomelon - objectively soulless - don't try to convince me that this show is anything but toddler crack.

Approved:

  • Sesame Street
  • Bluey

Both of the above shows seem to me like they are made with care and have the best interests to teaching children good morals and language skills.

I have no problem with paw patrol. Silly situations and the movies are fun too . Spidey and friends is very cute too . Lately my 6 year old wants to watch random Minecraft creators I just make sure he stays away from the weird side of YouTube.

yeah, i get that worry. there’s a lot of great stuff for all ages on youtube but lately the ads feel increasingly active and punishing.

I have YouTube premium so he Nevers sees an ad . I raised him to hate ads just like me . For me it's the weird content where they sexualize characters from kids shows . He have them constantly in danger of dying .you can search anything kids related and scroll down slightly and get the weirdest stuff
