From Wikipedia:
> YouTube Kids is a video app developed by YouTube. The app provides a version of the service oriented towards children, with curated selections of content, parental control features, and filtering of videos not deemed to be appropriate to the target audience.

I mean, yes, they say that, but there's plenty of videos(on YouTube, lol) showing how to get to child-inappropriate videos on YouTube Kids(Jake Paul videos for instance, they don't show if you search for Jake Paul but there are other terms you can search for and they will show up).

And physically[0], Jake Paul is not a child, further debunking the post I was replying to initially.
[0]: I'm sure there's a ton of controversy because this is the internet and that's what you people do for a living, so I'm sure I'll get some posts claiming he's as mature as a 5 year old or whatever. But Google says born in 1997, which I'm sorry to tell you means he's not a child.
