I've taught my daughter to use a VPN here in the U.S. There's "Kids Online Safety Bill" making it through congress, and if it passes, kids won't be able to access all kinds of websites. Porn, yes, but also just websites about LGBT+ stuff which are perfectly safe for kids. As I have a queer daughter, I want to make absolutely sure she can access those sites if she needs them.

Sorry but I am curious, how did you find out your daughter is queer ? Is it the behavior towards other girls ?

[โ€“] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Because I talk to her. You know people talk to their kids, right?

OP is probably assuming your daughter is very young and may not know herself.

Fair enough! But you have to admit, that a hell of a strange age for all of us. Maybe the strangest!

My daughter is 11, not sure she has a clue what sexual orientation means, let alone her own.

(Just now getting her back in my life. Long story. Mom fucked around and found out.)
