Youtube is crack for children. My nephew loves watching Minecraft videos. He doesn't know what Minecraft is. He mainly watches some animal shows. Every now and then when i check what he's watching, he watches some content farm shit. One time he watched this video where they just filmed a small child in a mall and made stupid sound effects and fart sounds. The video had millions of views and it was just absolute brain rot garbage.
It goes so far that he doesn't even want to watch a movie when he comes over. Watching a great animated movie in a home theater? Uhm, can i watch some youtube instead. It's a bit freaky. And it's not like he's allowed to even watch a lot. He gets maybe 15 to 30 minutes if he behaves
I'm glad my kid hasn't stumbled into that side of YouTube. It's part of the reason I don't want to install YouTube kids. I know the same content is on the main app, but it's just there on YTKids
I personally love YouTube and I'd sympathize with your nephew, except I binge on 15-minute-explainers. That shits my lifeblood.
At least the channels he watches are usually well narrated.
