Parents Searching Through Phone - Tumblr Posts

🚨🚨For parents looking through their child’s phone 🚨🚨

hello, you might be wondering, why is this on their feed/liked/reblogged?

well, that’s probably for you. I just have a few questions for you, dear parents. Why are you on your child’s phone? I understand that this is a 17+ app (on the iPhone App Store), but you are going through a phone your child is currently owning and using. You GAVE the child the phone you BOUGHT for them, and you are looking through it like it’s your own. I understand that you might be concerned about what your child might be on, but looking through their phone is an evasion of privacy, and it’ll make your child not trust you.

I understand that in todays world, everything is held at a certain level, a level your child might be trying to reach, but school, stress, ADHD, anxiety, depression, certain thoughts, and family troubles could be holding them down so much, that they have to look for things on the phone that might not be good for them, but this is a new age, and age where kids will know how to use things, communicate, and be safe, and if they don’t, they have the whole community and the friends they have made along the way here to help them.

Tumblr is all fun and games when you set it up correctly, you get the fandoms you love and the fandoms you hate off of the feed, and when you fit right into the pure chaos and chaotic reblogs, and if someone texts them something weird? They can help with that by turning on a setting that forces people to follow their account to message you, and it’s always bots that message, or weird-ass people who ask them questions. If they aren’t as a certain age, some blogs will be blocked for their safety, and if they feel uncomfortable with a post or a person, they can block the post (report if it’s that bad), and block the person. And if they feel down, there’s always the fandoms they love that can help them feel better; and if that doesn’t work, they can have fun with the friends and mutuals they have made along the way of starting Tumblr.

Now, I understand if you feel left out of the picture because your child isn’t being open with you, but it could be because they are scared. They could be scared or afraid that they have gone too deep into a rabbit hole, and they won’t be trusted by you anymore and that you’ll hit them or they’ll just get hurt physically or emotionally/mentally. when this is how your child feels, it could be because of your parenting, are you treating them correctly? Are you accepting anything the child wants to go to or get (if you decline, try and say why because they might feel rejected completely)

In todays world, if your not a certain person or you don’t act a certain way, you’ll be left behind and laughed at. You may be thinking that your child is being funny when they tell you about how they feel, but it could be hurting the child mentally. I’m describing what my parents are like currently, and I’ve had some certain thoughts, some that I hate having.. and I- we, THE WHOLE TUMBLR COMMUNITY just don’t want your child being harmed. Cause trust me, if we hear about a child being rejected or harmed and it gets spread, we will get angry, and we will literally start up a donation or a lawsuit against the parents (ok maybe not the lawsuit, but it kinda feels like the tumblr community would do that).

and for people on Tumblr,

PLEASE, REBLOG TO SPREAD AWARENESS FOR KIDS PRIVACY ON DEVICES!
