France is the only country to have laws explicitly protecting minor "influencers" with limitations on the hours they can be working online, protections for their earnings, and the ensuring their right to have content they feature in be removed upon their request.

Illinois just passed a law requiring influencer families to set aside 50% of earnings made from usage of minors in monetized social media content to be set aside in a blocked trust fund for the child. It's the first US state to do so.

Youth sports:

When I was a kid 30 years ago, you’d have a practice or 2 a week plus a game on Saturday. Then if you loved sports, you’d get together with buddies in your ample free time and mess around playing super fun pick up games.

Now, many kids are having full weekend tournaments like every weekend. And tons of practices. They rarely have the free time to just play with their friends for the fun of it.

Sure they are better athletes than we were, but are they better off?

After school hobbies!

Around the age of 47, I decided to pick up guitar again. So I went to a local school and enrolled as a adult. I would see parents harassing their kids and berating them for not being better. I think the majority of them have lost the idea that extracurricular activities are too help your child out of their shell and also to have fun. Not to make them a professional of any sort or the best of the best of the best.

This is why I quit the saxophone. I was really good but my father made it unbearable. I tried out for the all state band and mildly flubbed on one note of my scales. My dad called EVERYONE he knew immediately and blasted me in the audition hallway on the phone for "absolutely blowing my scales and ruining my whole audition" and about how he wasted a whole day he could be at work . I actually made second chair and he ate his words but I couldn't take it much longer

I watched it with my sister growing up. At one point we watched a video of a comic con or some such panel. A bunch of sweaty dudes were asking questions one after another. Then the sweetest little girl who was being encouraged by her dad stepped up to the microphone and very timidly (but bravely) asked about one of her favorite characters.

The scoffing and jeers coming from the crowd for the little girl not already knowing some fandom trivia was f*****g disgusting. Had I been the father that day I would have taken the mic and given them an earful.

Similar thing happened to Star Wars, fantasy space opera meant for all age groups. The fandom is overrun by insufferable neckbeards who relentlessly s#it on anything that 1) isn't the original trilogy 2) doesn't specifically pander to their tastes. New fans are shunned and mocked for (how shocking) liking stuff aimed at new fans. It's horrendous.

I think video gaming, in a way, has been ruined.

The market for adults is larger than children and that's fine because video games aren't only for kids anymore but I've noticed how hard it is to find games for kids that are actually good.

All the most popular kids games are fuelled by micro transactions, season passes, always online and crazy YouTube personalities screaming obscenities at children.

What happened to games like Spyro? A cool little dragon trying to do the right thing and fight evil. No blood, no gore, no AR-15s or grown men in their thirties hurling insults at you down a mic.

When I was ten I wanted to run like Sonic did. My nephew is ten and he wants an Assault Rifle from Fortnite...

I dunno, maybe I'm just outta touch.

Also just want to chime in and day this isn't really the fault of adults today. I'm a 34f and I'm not really an adult. Neither are most of my friends. There was no "adult" space for us to move into. The boomers are STILL working and living in their homes so we're working ok jobs, renting with roommates or living with our patents and spending money on stuff/experiences that's marketed towards a "young adult" lifestyle because then at least we get some enjoyment. There's a concentrated marketing agenda towards infantilizing young adults so we don't have meltdowns over the fact that most of our lives are below that of our parents.

Screw it, scalpers just ruin things for everyone else in general. I hate when bots buy out items just so someone can resell it for twice the price. It’s frustrating that people who might genuinely want/need that product now might not be able to buy/afford it just because someone else was greedy. It also just gets kind of absurd with some things where scalpers get 10+ stockpiles of items that already aren’t cheap just to hopefully resell them at an even higher price. I get wanting to make money, but scalping is pretty scummy most of the time and definitely ruins things for a lot of people.

They ran an ad for a little while that was a campaign that allowed you to vote on whether or not the rabbit would get some Trix. I think you had to mail in a box top with your vote or something. I voted “share” with all of my sensitive little heart. “Greed” won by a landslide. That’s when I first became disillusioned with voting and people in general.

Clowns. My daughter was able to enjoy them when she was little but now they just make her think of killer clowns. I get that a lot of kids (and adults) were scared of them regardless but these days scary clowns are almost the only kind I ever see, and I think that’s kind of sad.

Edit: Clowns as we picture them have been around for like 140 years but they definitely weren’t considered scary by the masses until the last few decades. Lots of things we currently find terrifying weren’t typically considered that back in the day. For example, look up old pictures of people dressed as Easter bunnies. You’d think they’re objectively terrifying but without the popularity of the horror genre most people just didn’t feel that way. Of course there’s always been people freaked out by these things - kids are often scared of people in any costumes, as any mall Santa can tell you - but “Ronald McDonald” would not have existed if clowns were as commonly considered creepy back in the day. I don’t think it’s a huge loss to society or anything but it’s an interesting shift. I had not expected to spend a lot of time convincing my preschool aged kid that “killer clowns” don’t actually run around killing people.

Collectors wanting rares doesn't need to ruin hotwheels for kids. When I was a kid I had 100 or more hotwheels because for a while it was a promo. Shell station I think. Fill up with 8 gallons or more of gas - get a free hotwheel. My grandmother and her fellow librarian coworkers would save them for me so I got lots of free ones. The point being - I was never seeking "rare" hotwheels. I was just a kid having fun with them. Something modern kids can still do. If your kid can't have fun with toy cars without seeking rares then that is on you and your parenting. I just liked to watch them zoom down the track.

Let me tell you, you can fill up over 5 large trash bins a week and it's just purely disgusting how often kids throw up or make accidents in there with no report.

Star Wars George Lucas is very explicit that they're kids movies, but adults make their entire personality into finding whatever little fault they can and circlejerking it online. It's probably the most toxic fan base there is, full of giant dorks with sticks lodged so far up their a**es they can't enjoy a movie about space wizards with laser swords (also, if you hold the OT to the same standard as the PT or ST, then the OT is hot garbage too)

Still doesn't make them ruined for kids. I enjoyed the movies. (early ones anyway). I never immersed myself in toxic fan debates online. Just watch the movies. Buy a toy if that pleases you. It is what you make of it. Side note - Star Wars was never a "kid's movie". Even the original movie is rated PG for parental guidance because some scenes might not be suitable for some kids. I viewed it in theaters (the only option) on original release. The audience had kids but the majority of folks in the theater were adults. It is largely kid friendly but it was never like say, "Land of the Lost" or Ferngully.

Those parties are a*s. Literally, a*s is all you see. Even the abuelas are dancing in tiny skirts. Which I mean, power to them. But I feel bad for the 20 kids trying to sleep through [music] blasting at 80dB. Wishing they could forget everything they've seen that night.

Paper Routes I had a morning route when I was growing up. It taught me so much about being responsible. . NNow grown ups have taken them over . They've taken what was 3 routes for 3 kids , put the m together and do them with their car .

I hated my paper route. It was the furthest route away from the newsagent, lots of really nice houses, so it was 70% broadsheets and 30% tabloids. Sundays were a nightmare as I could only take the first half of the route in my bag, and the second half was placed so I could pick it up en route!
