bad parent 

More of a stigma than the akcual condition, this slang term refers to parents who impose their children the same screen time limits as the persons who "only" subscribe to 20~100 YouTube channels even though these children subscribe to 600+ YouTube channels.

My friends think I’m a bad parent just because I "only" let my kids watch YouTube for 2 hours per day. I mean, they have subscriptions to over 600 channels — they just have the same screen time as the persons who "only" subscribe to 20~100 YouTube channels!

When they told me I couldn't join the project, I just thought, 'Screw you! I’ll find a way to make my own success.'
