    Smart kids just sign up with two of their own email addresses, but yeah, abusive controlling parents will always be an issue. They’re an issue without the internet. Adding internet to it doesn’t turn non-abusive people into assholes, it just lets them attack their children from a new angle.

    What I’m saying is, you cannot fix abusive parents without using CPS. The real answer to abuse is giving kids more tools to report it.

      Right, but if a young child is unaware of this and they reach out for help on a monitored platform they’re gonna find themselves in an even worse situation.
