“Proshippers are dangerous to children!”
Me, reading “immoral” books since age 11, 16 now, yet to have killed, raped, or tortured anyone:
Children are not put in danger simply by exposure to specific things. In fact, for many things, the sooner we learn them the better. I know a lot of people are going to interpret this in bad faith and the worst possible way, but;
Children actually need to be exposed to things in order to actually understand them and properly learn about them in a safe manner that will set the groundwork for the rest of their life.
I'll use an example that has absolutely nothing to do with sex or anything 'proship.'
The good old 'the dog went to live on a farm' analogy. When I was younger and my pets died my parents always told me that my pets had gone to live with other families who needed hem more. That pets were like Nanny McPhee; they went where they were needed.
This devastated me.
I spent years wondering what I'd done wrong. Why I wasn't good enough. Why my beloved pets had decided I didn't need or love them anymore. Where had they gone? Why had they gone? Did they love their new families more than me?
Literal years spent plagued with torment until I hit a new school year and we learned properly about death in biology. Then I spent weeks feeling betrayed, ridiculed and stupid because my pets hadn't abandoned me for a more deserving family. They'd up and died.
And death is sad, yes. I would've been sad for weeks. Months, maybe. I'd miss them forever. But I understood death. I would've understood and accepted death far quicker than I did the notion that the pets I loved so much had simply up and decided to fuck off one day.
If my parents had been honest with me they could've used my pets' deaths as opportunities for literally so many things. How to understand and deal with grief. How to understand and accept death. How to mourn. How to reminisce. How to manage and process and understand and accept my emotions. How to ask for comfort and self-soothe.
Instead all they taught me was that they thought I was too stupid to understand things and that I could've trust a word they said anymore.
Honestly the overbearing safety net we trap children in only robs them of opportunities to be healthy, functioning, developed adults. Children do not need to be sheltered from the entire world until we suddenly drop-kick them into it at 16 or 18.
I'm not saying we need to start hounding eight year olds about pornography and fictional shipping. But what we do need to do is safely introduce them to the world they live in and give them the tools needed to live in it.

Friendly reminder girls can like boyish things and be tomboys and boys can like girly things and be feminine without being transgender.
“Dismantling gender roles” doesn’t work if you insist that any child who shows interest in something that goes against their sex implies they’re the opposite.
In fact it just reenforces those gender roles the woke crowd seem to hate so much
Interests have no gender and anyone can like anything. It doesn’t mean they’re not who they were when they were born.

I'm sick of governments reluctantly giving funding to people that need it but assuming we'd "spend it all on drugs" if they don't approve each purchase.
I was a foster kid. Because I didn't have a birth family to help me when I turned 18, I got a few thousand dollars to help with basic things like starter furniture or college supplies. But because of the "they'd spend it all on drugs" mentality, someone else looked after the money for me.
I had to get invoices from stores, send them to the people with the money, wait for them to be either approved or denied, and then wait for them to send the money to the store themselves so I could get the purchases.
Not only did this mean that I wasn't allowed to shop second hand or even shop for sale items, it also meant that I couldn't spend it on groceries or bills or rent if I needed to. And it meant I could get denied for random items and not told why.
I'm a decently money savvy person. I could have gotten everything I needed for a fraction of the price (probably about 20%) and then spent the rest on rent. And fuck it, maybe I could have afforded to buy some weed to help with my pain flares.
But the government doesn't want to "help" unless it's not helpful at all. And to top it all off, the money had expiry dates. Age 21 for some of the funding and 25 for the rest of it.
I've been trying to get the rest of the funding used on car repairs for months now.

A lot of parents don’t see children as people and violate them in ways that would be unacceptable if they were adults
You wouldn’t lie to an adult about what you put in their food
You wouldn’t beat an adult as punishment
You won’t force an adult to hug or kiss someone
But when it’s done to kids it’s seen as normal, and these things are treated as an almost universal experience. Kids are fucking people, treat them as such.

there’s this trend going around on tiktok right now where moms record a sort-of daily vlog of their toddler/young child, then do a voice-over parody of what they think their child is thinking about their mom and the overall situation
now, lots of these videos are super adorable and funny, but then you see the amount of saves, and you scroll far down in the comments and see some very, very concerning things
in the world we live in, there isn’t a fail-safe way to protect your child from any and all types of harm. i mean, you can teach your child traffic safety all you want, but there’s still a chance of them being hit by a car
but, when it comes to this current trend and social media in general, parents severely miss out on the opportunity of protecting their child by simply not posting them online to millions of strangers
it doesn’t matter how cute you think this video of your child is, at the end of the day, you are exposing them to millions of people with no regard for basic morality and ethics, and i desperately hope parents start to accept this fact sooner rather than later

Sharing this petition, every year kids get run over because car manufacturers ignore the blind spot in their large vehicle designs, up to 8 small children in a row can sit in this blind spot which makes things unsafe for everyone, including the drivers!
Please consider signing the petition, it's free and they're nearly at the goal!

AN OPEN LETTER to STATE GOVERNORS & LEGISLATURES (ALASKA ONLY)
Reconsider HB 183 for Inclusive School Athletics
3 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!
HB 183, which proposes segregating school athletics based on biological sex, raises significant concerns about the potential harm it could inflict on children. This approach lacks scientific backing and may inadvertently subject students to invasive scrutiny, including the risk of inappropriate inspections. It is imperative that we prioritize the safety and well-being of all students above all else.
Moreover, HB 183 echoes past mistakes made by administrations that were overly focused on perceived threats from the LGBTQ community, while neglecting actual dangers within local communities. For instance, scandals involving institutions like the Catholic Church and the Boy Scouts of America highlight the grave consequences of such misguided priorities.
Therefore, I strongly urge reconsideration of HB 183. Instead of implementing policies that could harm vulnerable students, let us work towards fostering inclusive environments where all children can participate in sports with their peers, regardless of their sex. By promoting inclusivity and respect, we can create safer and more equitable opportunities for all students to thrive.

It literally makes no sense to me.that when a child is coerced into sending CSAM of themselves to an adult the child is charged as a sex offender as well. Literally the only reason why the child would be charged is to deincentivize children from reporting CSA. So if you ever do want to expose your abuser!!! You face criminal charges as well. And in some cases they may get off Scott free while the groomed and abused child goes to jail or ends up on a permanent registry. That makes zero sense.
