United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Well, that's exactly why they do.
You give them an iPad and they shut up, and that's enough of a reason for many parents who shouldn't be ones.
Even then it's possible to lock the iPad down. You can just disable internet access, or you can be more subtle and just block certain sites. You can put YouTube into kids mode, lock the iPad to the YouTube app and stop worrying about it.
It requires 30 seconds of parenting and then you can go back to ignoring your child. But they can't even be bothered to do that bare minimum of effort.
