They are indeed dangerously close to some stupid shit because they are misusing and diluting words. But for now, I'm not seeing anything that leads me to believe there is malintent afoot. Just repackaged hippie shit.

I could be wrong of course, but for the safety of the children, I hope I'm not.

@Terry
Again, I understand why you think that. I've just seen some of this crap before in hippie context. They're just trying to spruce up the language, and appear more "academic" and "scientific" by adding fancy words like "consent".

Don't get me wrong, this approach of raising kids, of "you should listen to what the kids wants" is still foolish, and leads to problems.

@Terry
Agree, but this is not what they're aiming at. They're trying to bring back an older, and very retarded, child raising idea.

@Terry
I understand why you think that way, but it's not about pedo things... for now.
It's a older hippie thing, where you're supposed to respect what a child wants. Only they're using the word "consent" to make it seem like an immature child's opinion on what he should eat for dinner is actually important.

But it is indeed a problem that they're gonna twist the meaning of that word, and confuse children about actual, grownup consent.

@Terry
They're doing the same thing as they've done with so many words.
They're watering down the impact of the word "consent" until it becomes meaningless.

>Emotional Development
In an age when people break down over "microaggressions".... forgive me for doubting there's anyone left that knows what healthy emotional development for children means.

Man... Apple users are so fucking cucked.

Yes, the solution to hot things is cold things. That's how thermodynamics works.

I saw Elf once. Hated it. I still enjoy Home Alone clips every once in a while, but I wouldn't sit down to watch it again, beginning to end, unless I had no choice. I watched it too many times, as a consequence of that Christmas tradition you mentioned.

Same goes for the Look Who's Talking trilogy. Also Homeward Bound and Beethoven.

Technically you can, by deleting the entire YouTube view history and unsubscribing from everything. It should mostly revert to default YouTube state.
