      But we sure can make sure no other parents have any choice about how they deal with it!

      What wankery.

        The case is that "You can’t out-parent a business model built on addiction" means parents don't have a choice.

        You are a small minority of parents who have the time, energy, and perhaps money to do so.

        I'm not sure the vast majority of parents have any of those and would happily welcome a compromise where they hand their kid a tablet and it's a tame device
