The Horrifical Reality about TikTok

I kind of enjoy watching Instagram videos while going to sleep. It's mindless entertainment; however, some are quite inappropriate. I also enjoy following some YouTube "content creators" for the same reason.

What do you mean inappropriate?
In what way?

I watch some content but I believe they are harmless stuff, like watching animals perform funny tricks or people singing silly songs.

Maybe I need to grow up but sometimes I just need to laugh😇

Hello Via;

Are you saying you have the app tok tik and they have harmless stuff to watch?

I do enjoy YouTube and love to watch reruns of soccer games, Christian praise and worship songs and Reaction from old classical music.
 
I heard of Book tok, YA have really taken to it, but I don't really read YA so, not on it.

Children aren't really into tiktok, its more the teen -twenties crowd on it. These fads come and go. I recall Bebo, Myspace, and Friendster.

I'd be more concerned about Fortnite and those other violent graphic video games. I don't get why boys feel the need to shoot things, albeit virtually. I'm like this is so boring. Really?!

Maybe they are practising for world war 3 I dunno.

Ok, this is a little complicated.

Some people, the majority being women, post provocative short videos on Tik Tok or from Tik Tok to Instagram. These folks are known as "Content Creators". In the videos, they invite the viewer to "follow" them. Once someone hits the "follow" icon, they are asked to subscribe to their "OnlyFans" page. Onlyfans is also kind of like Tik Tok; however, you have to pay to watch those videos and many of those are "home-made" porn.

"Content creators with a small combined following on social media (approx. 5,000 followers) could earn between $749 and $3,747 per month. Top OnlyFans creators like miss_swedish_bella earn around $10,000 a month on average."

No I don’t use tik tok. I do have accounts on Facebook and insta, among others. I never bother with them much.
Facebook short videos seem harmless, but just today after a good chat with Major and forgiven61 I have realised I been backsliding in my walk, and find they are mindless rubbish that haven’t helped me grow in my walk whatsoever.

So I’ve banned them.😁.

My boys were raised on video games and havnt killed anyone yet. Any kid that kills somebody has issues to start with, gamer or not. But if they were young today they wouldnt be on any social media especially ones like tic toc with the antichristian stance they take and their allowance of pedophiles. Now, im gonna log onto Lord of the Rings online and kill some orcs. ;)

Now the ole Major is not an expert on this. He is however one who has had to clean up the mess afterwards.

Video games can be helpful in that they have the ability to teach children’s memory-enhance leadership skills- allow kids to share the joy of competition, without the fear of injury-inform kids about history and culture.

However, they also have the ability to encourage violent behavior.
Several studies that have been done recently have shown that there has been a correlation between violent game use and aggressive behavior. There is insufficient evidence to link violent video games to criminal behavior.

I for one have seen that prolonged indulgence in these games will Promote social isolation and anti-social behavior.
Spending too much time playing video games can isolate children. They may spend less time doing other activities such as reading, sports, homework and interaction with family and friends. There is a definite problem where by the children have a problem disassociating real time with fantasy time.

Every thing in moderation. There has been a trend for sometime now to blame something or somebody for bad behavior. Comic books in the 50's and I recall Hilary Clinton blaming video games for problem children all the while encouraging permissive parenting.
 
Parenting helps. We raised ours in the middle of nowhere. Lots to do outside but they did play games.
Kids turn out like they turn out. We raised five:

The oldest son played video games all day, was in a band, and had multicolored hair. He is now a PhD data scientist.

Our youngest son was all about sports. He is a former fire fighter and now a water treatment manager for an oil company.

Oldest daughter was the captain of her cheerleading team. She is now a "hot mess" and still can't survive without parental assistance in the $$$ department.

Middle daughter was a serious troublemaker. She is now a mom, business owner, and working on her master's.

Youngest daughter was the quiet one. She is married, mother of four, and working on becoming a teacher.

No one ended up in jail :)
