If anyone is looking up for the chance in getting into entertainment and making a new generation of kids find some clues, it’s youre time to shine!
I’ve just been reading people freaking out at Target in the US no longer labeling their toys “girls” and “boys”. A fairly common response is something like “How will I know what to get my granddaughter for her birthday if I don’t know which are the girl’s toys?” Hmm, well, what does your granddaughter like? Maybe you could actually get to know her and find out what her interests are rather than treating her as a generic representative of her assigned gender. Just a thought.
what is nicki minaj's "anaconda" about?
It’s about a snake that only eats bread.

Here’s the original video, you should drop a like on it if you have a twitter. Encourage kids to create art!
I don’t think it’s villainous to offer a critique though. It shows the kid you’re taking his work seriously, and the guy’s points actually would be beneficial if he wants to refine his craft. I would've included an affirmation of the positive aspects though, such as “the simulated waves with the rug worked well, I loved the way you employed it as a screen wipe at the end!”
this is literally in response to a video a mom posted of a stop motion film her TEN YEAR OLD SON MADE FOR FUN why do men speak
Studies show that approaching youth with a bystander-intervention model is actually a lot more effective for reducing sexual assault, and it is also more enthusiastically received than programs that bill themselves as anti-rape.
We can tell youth that they are basically “rapists waiting to happen” (anti-rape initiative), or we can tell them that we know they would intervene if they saw harm happening to someone and we want to help empower them to do that (bystander intervention). The kids jump in with both feet for the latter! It was amazing to see children (and young boys in particular) excited to do this work and engage their creativity with it. Also, studies show that not only do they go on to intervene, but they also do not go on to sexually assault people themselves. Bystander intervention also takes the onus off the person being targeted to deter rape and empowers the collective to do something about it. It answers the question in the room when giggling boys are carrying an unconscious young woman up the stairs at a house party, and people are not sure how to respond and are waiting for “someone” to say or do something.
