What guidelines for the internet would you set for your hypothetical children?
Limited usage? Blocked sites? No internwt at all?
Discuss

I feel it'd be kinda unfair, but I'd heavily restrict it based off of what it has done to me. I want them to be normal

I think Chad's parents just made him go outside a lot. I don't think they blocked porn or anything.
>>
>>29039284
This is right desu
Don't limit their internet, just force them to go outside so that in the end they'd rather go outside than use it.

>children

First of all, I'm never going to have children, nor do I want to have children. Way too expensive, way too much bullshit.

Secondly, if I do have children for some terrible reason (say I manage to fuck a roastie somehow-hasn't happened in 26 years so I'm not too worried) I'd probably be a pretty obsessive father, because I'm paranoid as fuck, and I hear having children changes you. How am I even supposed to set internet guidelines for them? They'll figure out how to get around things eventually, and I'm sure by the time I'd have kids that can use internet fucking babies will be calling each on cellphones through skype to facetime gurgling faces at each other.

My parents just instilled me with a sense of vicious paranoia that has made dealing with everything in life a near anxiety-attack. Guess I'll just do that, or let them do whatever.

No one on this board will have normal children anyway.

>>29039284
Do kids even play outside anymore?
I was born right at the end of when people played outside where I lived. Everyone just stays inside nowadays even chad

>>29039213
Tricky question, my dude. It depends on how old they are.

Children are stupid as hell and make poor decisions and it's the job of the parent to make sure they end up a good person. This means you have to restrict them from doing some shit they might want to do.

But at the same time you want to let them make some choices so they learn how to think for themselves.

I'd personally block all porn sites but wouldn't have a hard limit on time spent on the internet/games (after a certain age).
They'd be able to choose how much time they spend but only after having completed other necessary tasks such as physical exercise, going outside, completing homework, eating proper food, etc.

When I was a kid I didn't really fuck around with the internet all that much. Mostly just for finding pages with cheats to print them out or upload my custom maps for all the games I played back then. I never actually saw porn until I was like 15 and I had pretty much unrestricted access to the internet since I was 7. I guess the only things I'd restrict were them having a mobile phone and maybe a Facebook, just because there's no reason for a young kid to post all their information on the internet or have an isolated point of contact except if you want them to get raped by weirdos.

All that glorious history forgotten, all those small stories to be replaced with brown people with a big mac in one hand and an iphone in the other
>>
>>29039284
This desu

Make him do sports, go outside regularly with him, yeah.

Yeah. I wish id done that.
>>
>>29039468
>glorious history
People exploiting and killing each other because humans are awful. I guess the exploring and invention was kinda cool though, even if its primary purpose was exploiting and killing more people better.
>>
I'd use a whitelist system. They could use kid friendly sites like addictinggames and the cartoon websites, but I don't want them googling anything as they don't need to be connected to the world just yet. Any new sites have to be ok'd by me. (and I would block a few gimme sites like youtube to show them its ok and easier to ask then to go around me).

When they get a bit older I'll allow them to use google with safe search and my own filter.

When they discover porn I'll make a big ass fuss about it. They will try to use incognito mode or delete the history itself but that's ok. I'll act like it works and I can't see them but I can still monitor where they go and keep it "vanilla".

My only concern is if they ask for social media. I'll have to keep a good eye on that and teach them what is "safe" to post on the normi-net.

War is art, even animals fight gracefully and only true enemies that battle against each other gain respect. In a primal state, pushed to your limits to survive that's living. Not sitting in front of a man made screen all day and masturbating

I'm going to teach my kid to surf and encourage him to do a team sport (cricket or soccer as I could teach him those). Thoughts?

No limits
I'll only have kids (if I have kids) with someone who is as smart as I am, and because of genetics that means they will be as smart as the two of us, which means that they are smart enough to understand everything they find and not be sheltered little faggots.

You could literally go live innawoods right now, build a shelter and forage/kill all your own food. Why aren't you?

My first post was about society not about me. Could you please go back to the website you came from. We don't need your mentality on new 4chan

I don't even know what your point is. You just don't like the idea of white people being replaced by brown people? You have some Kaczynski-esque dislike of technology? You're all over the place here, my dude.
>>
>>29039985
If you don't know what my point is then why are you still replying? You obviously took something to heart like a sperg, go back to your hugbox m80
>>
>>29040068
I was just conversing with someone on an imageboard designed specifically for posting images and conversation.
I pointed out a perceived inconsistency in something you said and you told me to fuck off but I'm the autist who's taking things to heart.

Strange stuff, fella. I hope you think about what happened here and learn from it. Cya.
>>
>>29039615
I actually took a class on how brains work.
We covered important things parents need to do to get good kids.
Letting your kid make choices is extremely important, but don't let them control you. Have them play a team sport, but let them choose the sport. Team sports are really good for kids because it keeps them exercised which promotes brain and body health, and creates social health.

Don't let your kid get too knocked down by failure. Sports can be used as an excellent tool to teach self-motivation, participation awards are extremely harmful though, so stay far from those. Teach your kid that they can win if they try harder.

Read to your kid before bed every night. Let them choose the book most nights, but have one night where you choose the book. Repetition is healthy for kids as it strengthens neural connections, but you need to keep introducing new stuff to keep them growing.

You won't need to block porn or anything, you just need to teach them about how things actually work before they learn the wrong things.

My parents weren't strict enough and never pushed me to do anything. I suppose I would raise my kids completely opposite to this so that they don't end up in a place like this. However, my parents only raised me this way because their parents were extremely controlling, so I guess this would be a continuation of the cycle.
>>
>>29040434
You've noticed the cycle.
It's time to break it.
You can do it. Change starts from within, and you've already started with the far above-average level of introspection. Break the cycle. Be a good parent. You have it in you.

Spoken like a true faggot that has never had to deal with war or actually struggle for anything essential in his entire life.

There's nothing stopping you from joining the military in a combat position, or as mentioned, go live innawoods to battle for your daily survival, but you're just suggesting everyone else do all these violent and dangerous things, even though you fit the demographic you're mocking for being sedentary and more concerned with their finances than "glory" and the imaginary immortality granted by children.

The "glorious western world" is nothing but a creative fiction amassed from the happenings and random events of the past few hundred years; there's no such thing as an eternal empire or unending cultural paradigm.

>>29040068

You're just trying to save face at this point. You should fuck off back to /pol/ or something, you ignorant child.
>>
>>29040434
Don't be strict, just don't spoon feed them. Don't buy them anything, make them use their allowance for doing chores and stuff. And when they're 16, they have to buy things with their own money. It's also important to allow them to experience new environments and take risks when they are around 5 so it wires their brain to be more extroverted when they grow up to be Chads and Stacys.
>>
>>29040547
So what if I fit the demographic. Do you think I don't know that you idiot why else would I suggest it, I want something better. You want to stay in this realm, this pathetic society in which men are feminized, society has weak uncultured bonds and people don't do what they are supposed to. We are animals at the end of the day I think it would be for the better to be out of this "comfort" zone and back to a more natural state, a less depressing one.

I suspect this childfree and carefree attitude was not of your choosing and in another thread you would be complaining about depression or loneliness. Dont attack me if I want to fix that
>>
I had heavy parental controls on my computer use and my siblings didn't, and by the looks of it they are spending their time a hell of a lot worse than I did. They definitely aren't getting phones or computers until they are in high school. But I probably won't restrict it then.
