Yes, I agree, a terrible parenting strategy. Also fuck elf on the shelf, since the whole book is about how the elf is Santa’s spy and you can’t question or touch it. I’m pretty sure this is what gave her the awful idea.
Feel you. I got accused by my brother in law of being some kind of psychopath for not wanting Santa in the house.
In their house, my sister is already using the threat of Christmas big brother against any minor hijinks that their kid gets up to.
I have a three year old, so unfortunately, I have another 4 years of this nonsense ahead of me.

soycapitan451@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.ml•A Proposed Massachusetts Law Would Ban the Sale of Cell Phone Location Data6·2 years agoFrom the article: “Firms say this data is anonymized but the truth is that it can easily be de-anonymized. The data brokerage industry is pretty much totally unregulated, allowing for an assortment of unsavory customers to buy Americans’ data willy nilly.”
Isn’t this the real issue and not the headline? US really needs GDPR.

Could we add functionality to collapse all child comments? Also a way to set that as the default option?
I really like this update. Thanks for making the transition over to Lemmy such a positive experience.
On connect. Once I changed my settings it’s very comparable to the RIF setup I had.
Why is anyone interested in anything?
My nephew was obsessed with Teslas a few years ago. I asked him why, his response? The indicators can be set to make fart noises.
