    Are we talking about the internet? I honestly feel the internet is just too wild for children. I’d even create legislation for phones and computers to have mandatory internet security features for minors. I grew up looking at things like Rotten and Liveleaks with friends at school. Without noticing, watching people die in gory ways was my main internet activity at 15, and it was pretty hard to stop that habit. I wish I didn’t have access to that content at that age, I was pretty fucked up for a couple of years. I was totally desensitized and didn’t care when a family member died, didn’t feel a thing. I knew it was wrong, I just couldn’t feel anything.
