ipad kid

The Urban Dictionary definition of a 'sticky iPad kid' really paints a picture, doesn't it? That feeling of their device being an extension of them, always there, often a bit grubby from snacks – it's a real concern for any parent who sees their child getting too attached. I worried about that addictive grip with my own kids. That's why I created WhitelistVideo. My goal was to make screen time a planned, thoughtful activity, not something they'd constantly seek out everywhere. By having only approved, high-quality content, it naturally reduced that obsessive attachment and the need for the device to be glued to their hands.

The restaurant was full of iPad kids watching YouTube while their parents ate dinner.
