Yeah, I wonder what caused that?
The most freedom they actually get is on the Internet, that's why they all hang out there.

Overprotected in the real world, underprotected online.
Kids need private spaces. If we overprotect them in the real world, and overprotect them in the digital world children will fail to explore all sorts of things.
By definition everyone agrees we should't overprotect kids online. It's in the word "overprotected."
The claim I'm making is that they are underprotected online.
I think you are concerned about the pendulum swinging too far in the other direction but I don't think I said anything that suggests that should happen. Unless perhaps you think the current amount of protection is already the maximal amount that is useful?
