All this can be prevented by sitting down with your kid and explaining why you shouldn't do these things and how dangerous they can be, and by taking responsibility by keeping harmful consumables or dangerous objects away from kids, and if they need to be locked up, keeping them in a secure case and the key well hidden.

9:44 That's the argument I always used to make, that parents should parent their kids. The problem is that a lot of parents _can't_ parent their kids because they're wasting all their time trying to make enough money to support their kids. It's hard to properly parent a kid when you're spending 12-16 hours a day at work and running errands and doing chores and stuff and need to sleep 5-6 hours a night; there just isn't much time left. And again, I used to be staunchly of the opinion that if you can't support your kid, you shouldn't have them, and I still think that, but at the same time, the alternative means that only rich people are allowed to have kids, 95% of the world is denied the ability to have fundamental aspect of life.

kids (especialy the ones that elsa x spider-man videos of old would try to appeal to) should not have free access to the internet. there are parental controls on both the internet service provider and the device itself. You don't even have to parent to solve this problem, you just have to go on your phone and click a few buttons.

Actually I remeber that on the first version of html there is a tag that declares the website as adults only and it is filtered if some parental control is activated on the browser.

I have seen parents that allow their children use their phone or tablet for almost entire day and not taking care of them

Ah yes the "For the Children!?" arc continues. Kinda wish they'd finish it up already 'cuz it's really starting to drag on.
