There's enough of this "think of the children" crap when the majority of it could easily be solved by parents actually monitoring their children instead of relying on technology and things such as this. Easier said than done. No parent has time to watch exactly what their child is doing 24/7. There are steps they can take to monitor where their kids have gone (check internet history, etc.), but most kids know the tricks. Six months ago when I still was a minor I would delete the history, cookies, etc. so there was no trace of my illegal activity. Even if parents do watch their kids at home, they can't possibly monitor everything their kids see and hear outside their home. Just as there is no 100% perfect way to verify age on the internet, there is no 100% perfect way to monitor a child's internet habits. If someone really wants to do something they'll find a way.
I'm a high school senior, and have tons of applications and long term projects going all the time. I haven't had a day since September when I didn't have something major to work on or finish. Naturally, this has caused burnout. I'm tired all the time, and it takes me longer to do work than it should. I can't drop any of my classes because they are all required for either my high school diploma or my IB diploma (in fact, there's one class that I couldn't take that I was supposed to). Does anyone have any ideas how I could reduce my burnout?
