> I adore Kate’s parents, and they’re raising her to be an amazing young woman. But they’re essentially robbing her of a digital adulthood that’s free of bias and presupposition.

Oh god, these types of smug parents annoy the crap out of me. This is the digital version of the mom who lectures you for letting your kid watch Sesame Street or eats Frosted Flakes, because don't you know sugar/TV are going to destroy his mind and body.



True. Also, her daughter is going to be plenty embarrassed by her mom's high-anxiety-parenting (including, but not limited to the poop-tracking) when these articles are dug up by her friends in middle school.


Yeah. "We don't want any information about our kid online, that's why we are writing articles about her pooping habits on Slate."
