Submission Text
My baby is growing up in the digital age and I am vigilent about protecting him from media images. Please do not give companies access to children's online information. I am the parent who does not subscribe to cable, who wants my child to grow up playing outside. I also want my child to be able to accesss computer websites without companies tracking his information. I can opt to have him spend less time on the computer (and will) if access to his information is granted, but I would like to see us protect children. I know consumers want his information, but does it really make us a better society to promote such consumerism? Remember when we taught our kids to be inventors?
