The key issue is supervision. YouTube Kids also has very enriching content. My hyper intelligent kid was able to direct himself to all kinds of educational content — way better than being forced to watch whatever crap was on TV like when we were growing up watching He-Man and Skeletor and GI Joe which was some real f’d up shit if you think about it. Like, they had swords and guns and shot people and it was “harmless fun”.

Just fyi - Youtube Kids sells itself as "curated" content, but you can very quickly find Jake Paul videos which are absolutely 100% not kid-friendly on it.

Wasn't GI Joe basically like the storm troopers in star wars? Laser guns and nobody gets hit?

My memory of it is hazy and likely warped by pastiches like adult swim's Too Many Cooks.

Is this the same child that was convinced sleeping under a tree would be fatal?

No, because he didn't claim it was fatal. But your comment reveals just how much of a dick you are. He's 6.
