Growing Up Digital: Navigating the Challenges and Benefits of Kids’ Smartwatches in the UK ?
Growing Up Digital: UK Parents Guide to Kids’ Tracking Watches — Benefits, Challenges, and Finding Balance
In the UK, the digital world is becoming an ever-present part of childhood. Kids’ tracking watches have surged in popularity, offering features like GPS location tracking, two-way calling, and even games. While these features can provide a sense of security and connection for parents, they also raise concerns about screen time, online safety, and overall well-being. Let’s delve into the challenges and benefits of kids’ tracking watches in the UK, helping you navigate this new digital frontier.
Benefits of Kids’ Tracking Watches for UK Families
Peace of Mind with GPS Tracking: Kids tracking watches with GPS allow parents to locate their children, offering a reassuring sense of security, especially for younger kids who might have more freedom to explore.
Enhanced Communication: Two-way calling allows parents to stay connected with their children throughout the day, fostering communication and a sense of trust.
Safety Features: Many kids’ tracking watches come equipped with SOS buttons that children can press in case of emergencies, providing an extra layer of safety.
Educational Opportunities: Certain watches offer educational apps and games that can stimulate learning and keep children engaged in a controlled digital environment. Consider brands like KidsWatch that prioritize features like educational apps alongside tracking and safety.
Challenges to Consider: Screen Time, Online Safety, and Development
Screen Time Concerns: Excessive screen time can negatively impact children’s development, affecting sleep patterns, creativity, and social interaction. Setting boundaries and screen time limits is crucial.
Online Safety Risks: Kids’ tracking watches with internet access expose children to potential online dangers like cyberbullying and inappropriate content. Parental controls and open communication are essential.
Impact on Development: Overreliance on technology can hinder a child’s ability to develop essential skills like communication, problem-solving, and independent play.
Finding the Right Balance: Tips for UK Parents
Choosing the Perfect Watch: Opt for a watch with features that align with your child’s age and your family’s needs. Look for kids tracking watches that prioritize safety features and parental control.
Set Clear Rules and Limits: Establish clear guidelines regarding screen time, app usage, and online behavior.
Open Communication: Talk openly with your child about responsible online behavior and the importance of maintaining a healthy balance between digital and physical activities.
Lead by Example: Be mindful of your own screen time and model healthy digital habits for your child.
Growing Up Digital: A Collaborative Effort
The rise of kids tracking watches reflects the evolving digital landscape in the UK. By acknowledging both the benefits and challenges, UK parents can navigate this new territory effectively. Remember, fostering open communication, setting clear boundaries, and prioritizing real-world experiences are key to ensuring a healthy digital childhood. Let’s work together to help kids grow up digital in a safe and responsible way.

this is the iconic dinosaur horror jurassic park wishes it was
#so there's this person on twitter who is like an infamous drama starter and got a whole forum shut down once#and they wrote this (different) book that's one of the greatest so bad it's good things i've ever read#a few great things that happen in that:#characters get in a car crash and flee on foot. later it's casually mentioned one character had both her legs amputated 'due to fractures'#the character pretending to be american by wearing maga hats that have spy gear built into them#the spy gear in question is an alarm that blares if someone lies in their vicinity#'stuff protocol ' said the queen. 'i'm getting hammered tonight'#the chapter where the prime minister is trying to watch the news so she keeps wandering into bars and tv shops and getting kicked out#the dragon that's casually described as 'about the size of 1000 elephants'#the dragon that's a 'dog dragon hybrid with a chihuahua body and a giant dragon head'#the dragon that's owner punched it in the face and only lets people approach if they 'do the iconic royal wave'#the characters being described as 'the short one' 'the guy with the beard' etc#but there being a lengthy detailed description of the characters in harry potter#'apparently a dragon had burnt essex to cinders in a matter of minutes'#anyways i found out they also wrote (a political parody of indiana jones???) for this book of kids short stories years ago#and you know. we needed to know#so it took me like 4 months to track this precious lost media down#which was very worth it because it turns out it's full of many other iconic gems like CELLAR HELL by Elizabeth Elgie (12)

Fellow neurodivergent ppl, do you ever get shocked at how fucking autistic you are
#I just spent like half an hour tracking down and downloading an old PBS cartoon I used to watch as a kid (Redwall)#so that I can eventually clip out sections of my favorite character and scenes that I can watch when I feel like it#this will take hours and will have little overall benefit except for me feeling a lil dose of nostalgia#honestly I really do think all my data hoarding and archiving is just an extension of my autism lmao#personal#actually autistic

#my art#khdr#xehanort#ephemer#khux player#the small eph and xeha art piece that somehow turned into a comic#I hope I’ve pulled on your heartstrings in at least 3 different ways :)#I have so many thoughts about eph being stuck in some kind of limbo#whether it was intentional or not he watches over everybody#all his descendants can sense him to some degree but they can only /see/ him when they’re very young#xehanort is like this. but since he’s more sensitive maybe he’d feel eph’s presence even if he can’t see him#like even as a teen and adult#and the way he wished to meet eph (and the others) even as an old man; endlessly chasing those dreams he had as a kid 😭#why’d they give us that mirror scene man. hurtful.#and on the other hand eph has been ‘alive’ for so long he loses track of time; it’s all one big circle to him#yearghh. that’s my tag ramble for the day#my posts#timeless familia#aeon oc#khx player

it’s 3am so watch me commiserate over this clip that’s been living in my head rent free for months now and making me sad once again after recent events
that feeling of it being just dapper and q!bad against the world returns once again
“i’m the only one who can watch you”
it’s the fact that the guy that would sacrifice eveything for any of the kids to stay safe, no matter how much strife or hatred or nasty words any of the parents could throw at him, is the one who feels like he has no one watching out for his own but himself. dapper is only an afterthought to the others. someone to remember only after all the terrible things have already happened. of course the halo family has others who they trust, but over and over again it’s shown that there’s a reason why q!bad is basically dapper’s whole world and why dapper is his sunshine
this is isn’t something new. they’ve both always shared this sentiment. dapper, the sole escapee off egg island, having only his dad at his side as they ran to that boat. and more recently, no one making sure dapper could ride out on the train with the rest of the islanders and eggs into the new server when they left that library
they “left me behind” and “just forgot me”
thankfully q!etoiles started to run back, but the fact that no one checked in the first place, that it seemed like q!etoiles was really the only one to notice even though plenty of others saw that dapper was online and around. q!bad is the only one who’s ever had dapper as priority number one in anything
that poor kid said it herself, she thinks she’s not one of the favorites. he thinks the others will be prioritized first. and they’re unfortunately likely right about that unless it comes to their dad
so the mantra continues; it’s simply dapper and q!bad against the world, to have each others backs, to live and die for each other
#the fact that bad was completely ready to run back for the other kids at the end of purg 1#but decided to place his trust that the parents would do whatever they could to get their kids bc he knew if he wasn’t there for dapper#no one else would and he was right#also#i just got really sad remembering watching dapper walking down those tracks by himself#she’s strong but she’s also still just baby :(#his tendency to think little of himself comes from dad#qsmp#qsmp dapper#dapper the egg#q!badboyhalo#badboyhalo#video#long post kind of?#also i say 3am post but i didn’t finish writing this until like 3:40am so rip

Actually, I hope Jiaoqiu stays blind (at least for a couple years in our time) and just bullies the Xianzhou alliance into inventing disability aids and treating disabled people better
#hsr#honkai star rail#hsr spoilers#jiaoqiu#i want to make it very clear that this is not a Jiaoqiu hate post#i am simply a disabled gal (chronic pain + shit eyesight + neurodivergent) who wants more disabled characters in the game#and with blindness in particular- that rant from the sanctus medicus lady really stuck with me#as did the treatment of the kid#and curing blindness irl is absolutely something that would be great and i think its fine to explore in game too#but its frustrating to watch the game act like thats the only way blind people can live their lives without constant suffering#especially in such a futuristic setting#like if you got space travel i think you can also make cains and railings and audio messages and braille#and I'm just hoping thats an intentional flaw of the xianzhou and not just writers ableism leaking through#with hsr's recent track record of disabled characters though i am learning towards believing its probably the former#I'm just saying that if mail delivering robots are a regular thing i dont see why other forms of robot assistants couldn't

Ellen McLain’s commentary from my trivia playthrough
#She's so cute <3#WPP#Portal#Ellen McLain#If you haven't played through the audio commentary I would Absolutely recommend it it is So fun#I clicked out of curiosity - kind of just expecting like a movie's audio commentary y'know? Like a video that highlighted specific scenes#No it's just the whole game again but with trivia pop-ups! I love that!!#It reminded me so much of like trivia track or the pop up fun facts from special editions of movies I would watch as a kid#But you can play through them!! You have to click on them and they spin! I love that!!!#I always love hearing the design and development process - fascinating how the playtesters reacted to this new game!#We take it for granted now but yeah I imagine it would've been very confusing at the time#And I was like ''Well it was such a small team and Ms. McLain was such a large part of it - surely she'll have a few bubbles?''#She does lol - as soon as I got to her first one (it was a slow burn! They buried the lead with her lol I'm already invested!) I had to go#I saved-quit the game out of sheer excitement and giddiness lol I had to sleep on it before I was ready to come back#It is so cool to hear her natural voice ah <3 And the kinds of direction she was given! Other bubbles also talk about her vocal direction :)#Very cool! I wonder what TTS they used for reference :0#But to hear her real laugh without the audio processing over and and she still sounds like GLaDOS! I mean of course she does but just jfdksl#That's /her/ laugh! They share a laugh! It's a very similar laugh!!#Not to mention her talking about wanting to play and just fdskalfd they clearly did such a good job with her performance and ahhh#It's too cute it's all too cute sharing a room with GLaDOS while her voice actor talks about making a cake to share with her friends stopppp#I am so enamoured <3#I also took a bunch of screenshots of GLaDOS still shit-talking while she was being destroyed lol#Actually beat the ending in one try this time :P I ran out of time the last time pfft#But now I've beaten it twice in as many days :D Although I did start it the first time several days ago - but I beat it again quickly!#Has me all the more itching to replay 2 ♪#WPVG

Benny would be thrilled by Nick Valentine. Like I know the concept of synths and replacing people would initially shock him but I don’t think for long.
He’s not a technology guy by any means but he certainly appreciates it and understands what it can do. He’d be pro-synth and synths at people for purely pragmatic reason at first but seeing some noir detective would have him thinking of all the ways he could improve on his plan if he had that tech for Yes-Man.
If Yes-Man could pass as human he’d have no reason to hide him and could even have him buddy up with the rest of the Chairmen! Even if he’s found out and House wants him and especially synth Yes-Man out their is a loyalty to them that is only made stronger that Yes-Man looks like them now. It’s also such a complex thing for Yes-Man too now to struggle with “humanity” in a new context and his teacher tragic being Benny Fucking Gecko.
#also nicks like super cool in his mind cause in my heart Benny is like#a science fiction fan boy and big reason he listened to house at first is house offered something cool and had cool shit to back it up#Benny is like to me a man who is petty but not childish as the wasteland has allowed very few kids to have real childhoods#so he’s silly about somethings like when you give an adult a childhood toy and watch them become kids again#but it’s different here cause he’s an authority figure now and also he’s like planning a coo#so all his child behavior is forced to come out through his personality and choices and why he seems like a man child#fallout#fallout new vegas#benny gecko#benny fnv#yes man fnv#fallout 4#this was supposed to just be about Benny finding synths cool but then I kinda got off track in the notes#Benny would have a crush on nick and want to be his cartoon rival cause like holy shit seedy mob boss Rat pack type#and big city detective??? why are they not kissing in the floor#nick valentine

So uh, me and my sister are watching Steven Universe and we just finished Gem Drill last night
And today, this girl came up to me just now and asked me "Because Pearl cared so much about Rose Quartz, and Pearls are normally servants like the yellow and blue one, was Rose Quartz the Pink Diamond?"
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuckkkkkkkkkkkkk
#just posting#no she didn't look up anything she “had this idea when I was on the toilet” when I asked how the heck did she “come up with that?”#the reason why she knows about pink diamond is because she noticed the Great Diamond symbol on the arena and moon base#and we've seen Blue and Yellow Diamond thanks to Peridot and Garnet's story#so she figured it's reasonable that “there's a white and pink diamond” which I had to confirm it's not big spoilers anyways#but yeah uh anyways thanks for the heart attack kid. jesus#she figured it out fuck fuck fuck#I told her that she “cooked like Yor (Briar)” which got her to laugh and divert from the tracks for a bit thank god#(yes we watch SxF yes I realize it might be above her age. dw I skip the weird parts and she understands why)#what she doesn't know though is that I'm referring to the one good dish Yor cooked in the whole series so far#holy shit.#steven universe

more atsv things that haunt me: pav doesn't originally have a watch.
#see one thing that confused me was that gwen stole bens watch before she sent him home like she already had hobies why does she need another#well. turns out it was probably because several members of the spiderband dont have their own either#(off the top of my head --- noir and ham werent at HQ so they dont seem to have been part of the spiderman society#pav as seen above didnt have one despite being in the society and hobie took his off when he quit)#so gwen probably had to track down quite a few extras actually unless hobie had a backlog of counterfeit multiverse watches on his hands#across the spiderverse#across the spiderverse spoilers#pavitr prabhakar#ok but the REAL thing i was thinking about with this post is that pav doesnt seem to know about canon events either#and despite jessica implying they had a way to contact him he also does not come back to HQ with the rest of the kids after the Spot Debacl#he doesnt seem to be able to multiverse-travel at all until gwen recruits him into the spiderband#so the implication here is that miguel doesnt generally let people become full members of spider society with all the associated privileges#unless hes sure that they'll be vulnerable and/or traumatize enough to buy into the ideology. which is kind of fucked up!

I very much recommend watching Epic the Musical on Youtube.
I know a little about it! Mostly through animatics. I've heard all of "The Horse and the Infant" from ROTTMNT but all I really recall of it is the infant section I heard more recently in a LMK one. I've also seen "Get in the Water", male and female version, but I heard the female version first for an animatic of Hama that's now on Youtube (First link is tumblr, second is youtube).
Everything I've heard so far is a bang-up job! I just keep forgetting to actually check it out.
#Ask#Question Mandar#l-egionaire#Epic the Musical#This is gonna sound stupid but#I'm only recently realizing I might actually like musicals a lot#Which it STUPID bc I loved (still do) fnaf fanmusic and shit#I didn't really watch them as a kid or go to any plays or anything like that#I heard Hamilton as a teen and thought bc it was rap it was an Exception alongside SU#Then I've slowly been amassing songs from musicals I've never seen from animatics#Specifically 'breathe' from in the heights (which I've heard is really good!)#Part of 'they both reached for the gun' which I understand is from Chicago?#'My Eyes' from dr horrible's sing-a-long blog#Part of 'Confrontation' and all of 'bitch bitch bitch' from Jekel and Hyde#Part of 'the last day of summer' from percy jackson via warriors#It's a mothwing animatic check it out it's good#'Monster' from Frozen the musical#And a SMALL snippet of 'revenge party' and 'I see stars' from mean girls#But between mlp dead end and the hellaverse#I've started realizing. Holy shit. This shit is sick#So I'm hoping to slowly creep out into others#Lemme know some recommendations!#I don't think it counts but I've also listened to the entire Evelyn Evelyn sound track. It's a favorite of mine#I think they overwhelmed me a lot as a kid tbh. I vividly remember loving the Home on the Range cow movie UNTIL the banjo started.

also chewing on old man rosquez in the same age au. one of the funnier glass closets that exists in my mind palace. pedrenzo level embarrassing retired pundit content (marc BEAMING at vale’s voice getting piped in over comms…) and outside of work just. surgically attached at the hip as they float through the paddock. vale hanging off the back of marc’s little paddock scooter. bickering over who gets to drive bez’s ass back to the pits after he sends that thang into the gravel
#commentators watching them visit the track together post retirement to check on the academy kids#and having to avoid the phrase ‘confirmed bachelor’: uhh. rarely one seen without the other. here at silverstone. which could mean nothing.#motogp#callie speaks#rosquez#everyone knows and no one will sayyyyy#same age au

Maybe Willow’s dads meant it when they told her the Abomination tract had better opportunities than Plant and maybe they just needed a cover to avoid scaring her because they both know from personal experience (in the Them’s The Breaks, Kid flashback) that the leader of the Plant Coven is a sadist and they would feel safer with her working under ANYONE but Terra
#the owl house#toh#guess who finally watched the show#willow park#gilbert park#Harvey park#i like how the two kids who were instantly nice to Luz do the same magic as the two biggest scumbags among the coven heads#It keeps there from being a “good” track and a “bad” track#Unlike a certain OTHER magic school media#terra snapdragon

you ever wonder if the Glamrocks's face tracking acts up when they look at Glamrock-Freddy, like they'll look at his face, and the recognition will register as Freddy, but their systems for whatever reason or another think that there is a face overlapped on Freddy's do you think they see two small squares next to him, at his side, roughly child sized, but no one is physically there.... right...?
#fnaf#michael afton#five nights at freddy’s#glammike#crying child#elizabeth afton#i wanted to allude something to william but idk#would the glamrocks go into the sinkhole? maybe#maybe next to glamrock freddy alongside the weird overlapping face he has and the two kid height faces#there is a face tracking box next to him...standing#remember that post about the ghost hunters comin to the pizza plex? maybe the weird face tracking happens too...#im watching garret watts and Andrew's constant facial tracking anomalies inspired this post lol#anyways i really like the thought that despite being the most friendly Glamrock; Freddy has this......feeling about him#his AI was made just this year! programmed with cutting edge and top of the line technology!#then....then why does he go off script sometimes? why does he say things that wasn't programmed show dialogue?#how does he know about Mr. Afton? the killer from the 80's who committed heinous deeds?#Why does he speak as if he knew him personally? if his AI is just pulling stuff from online; Why does he speak with resentment about him?#IM SORRY I JUST LOVE THE CONCEPT!!#like just because this franchise has gotten more neon and sugery than ever; remember; lights can be blinding and sugar causes cavities#idk what that means just omg there is more horror potential than you think in the SB era of games if you look hard enough#off topic but back to freddy being a sweetie pie i think that its funny okay#freddy sasses adults okay okay but he isnt mean to kids okay maybe michael just idk; MATURED? maybe he just got some whimsy mkay?#listen if i was forced to be in a perpetual cycle of atoning for my own and my father's sins i would find any and all silver linings mkay#aw yeah this is sick i get to be a freddy mercury inspired glamrock bear WOOO#granted michael was probably tired of animatronic bands and pizza by fnaf 6 but ykkkkkkkk it.....could be worse? he could be his dad lmao#anyways headcannon michael listend to freddy mercury and this is the equivalent of cosplaying him scott told me so (trust)#tag rambles! theyre fun lol

He's not going on any lists anywhere but I recently decided to rewatch all the Land Before Time movies for no particular reasons and was against my will reminded of a childhood crush on mine who shaped my very early Childhood type and I just want to share my worst Hear Me Out ever
#Proship Selfship#If this man was human he would be a Cop and I must take the L on that one#I liked overprotective dad types as a small child don't. Don't ask me about that.#I liked the idea of a mob boss as a dad#And this guy was close enough#Hands you Cera's dad from Land Before Time and dips#Why am I watching Land Before Time?#I wanted to see exactly how many of the movies I had seen as a kid#Sense I never owned any of them I rented them from Block Buster#And I mean my child track record is pretty good I'm on IX now and I've only experienced one I hadn't seen before#So going great. I don't know why I'm doing this.
