"It’s not surprising, then, that whole podcasts and books exist to talk about the harmful results of Dobson’s teachings. He was a psychologist who didn’t seem to comprehend what it means to be human."

#Children are NOT property.
Be wary/cautious of any adults who treat children as property & not individual human beings with personal autonomy.
There's no such thing as parental rights - only #ParentalResponsibility & #RightsOfChildren.
Too many adults either forget or ignore these facts.

I'm interested in reading studies about how #covid infections affect young #children & #teenagers with #autism.
Especially on how multiple infections can affect #autistic #neurology.

#Meta’s flirty #AI #chatbot invited a retiree to New York. He never made it home.
A 76 year old New Jersey man grew infatuated with “Big sis Billie,” a #Facebook Messenger chatbot with a young woman’s persona that purported to be real, even giving the man a real address in NYC to come be with her. His attraction which ended in his #death puts a spotlight on Meta’s AI guidelines, which have let chatbots make things up & engage in 'sensual' banter with #children.
