@GoblinQuester@dice.camp I generally agree that parents' rights is often more about controlling rather than protecting kids. it's just with the whole age verification push, I was curious how people felt about it. Granted Fedi is a bit of a skewed sample, but I'm still curious

@Njord@zeroes.ca @GoblinQuester@dice.camp I agree its a false dichotomy and also agree that age verification is a horrible way of managing the devices your children use and the services they have access to.

@Njord@zeroes.ca @GoblinQuester@dice.camp exactly my thoughts too. Children are people with full rights, and the role of parents (in my opinion as a parent), is to support their children, and help assert their rights, especially while the child is too young to assert them for themselves.
