YouTube and Your Kids

YouTube is one of the most popular platforms for kids and teens—80% of parents report that their children age 11 and under have watched it. The platform's algorithm plays a big role in what children see, and it's designed to keep them engaged. That's why it's important to talk with your kids about what they're viewing, and teach them how to pause, skip, or mark videos they don't like. Also consider disabling the autoplay feature to give an endpoint and counteract endless scrolling.
