They shouldn't, but we aren't putting this genie back in the bottle. There are kids who already grew up since the 2010s having phones with internet access, who already are adults, and that's not going to change.

Rather than pointing fingers at the parents and the parents pointing fingers at the world we could take a moment to acknowledge that the horror scenario already came to pass and it turned out mostly fine.

Frankly these days old people with phones believing every nonsense they read worry me even more.
