Everyone is (rightfully) up in arms about the UK age verification.

But meanwhile the Australian government is banning YouTube for kids under 16. YouTube!

@AnarchoNeighbor I think a small number of us are into gentle parenting and a genuine approach to trying deal with our own #childism but we're a minority in most parenting spaces, perhaps a biggish minority in radical spaces. Trouble is the anti-childism crowd, great though they are, don't often take the radical implications far enough into the rest of their politics. E.g. Sarah Ockwell Smith (who is great, this is not a big diss, just a little one)
Super excited to be invited to give this talk at the University of Lethbridge on March 27. I've been thinking a lot about temporality and childhood in this new era of fascism. #uleth #ualberta #academicchatter #ChildhoodStudies #childism https://www.ulethbridge.ca/notice/events/childhood-time-monsters

The Anti-Childism Scale
PEACE I GIVE (2020)

"My scale is meant for personal reflection and self-improvement purposes only. I would be disappointed to see it used as a weapon against people who do not agree with my belief system. My hope is that it will get people thinking and give them an idea of where they stand with respect to embracing or rejecting childism."

The Anti-Childism Scale

If you’re not familiar with childism, you aren’t alone. Most of the people I talk with aren’t familiar with it. Some even scoff at the idea as though the concept of prejudice agai…

PEACE I GIVE

'love and respect demand that every human child be treated not as “the property of parenting adults to do with as they wish” but as their own person with their own rights. “When we love children,” hooks reminds us, “we acknowledge by our every action that they are not property, that they have rights—that we respect and uphold their rights.” '

What are some movies or shows where children are treated lovingly and thoughtfully, their autonomy is respected, and they thrive as a result? Like properly anti-childist media that would make John Holt himself sit up and take notice?

Kommenden Montag findet im Café Rabe die erste #Kindervorlesestunde nach der Sommerpause statt! Das Thema ist Kinder-helfen-sich-selbst durch Tüfteln und Bauen. Dazu bringe ich drei #Bücher mit, die unterschiedliche Alter ansprechen: Ada & Zangemann eher #Grundschule, Louis und die Riesenbirne eher jüngere #Kinder (finden aber auch ältere gut :-))
