TikTok wants you to believe they care deeply about your kids’ safety and well-being. Last week, they announced new parental controls allowing parents to see who their kids are following and who follows them. Additionally, they will begin “Wind down” mode for users under 16 years old. Are any of these ground-breaking? No. Could they do so much more? Absolutely.
In this episode, Kelly passionately reviews the latest with all things TikTok, including the impending deadline to be sold or banned in the U.S., the new parental controls, and how one university football coach took it upon himself to ban dancing on TikTok to preserve his team’s image.
