There's a parent who thinks that his daughter's connection to Taylor Swift's music is a threat to her connection with him. The only threat is his own refusal to try and understand it. -- http://bit.ly/48RnG3G
This parent is demanding "mandatory sexual health education booths" at Taylor Swift concerts. I guess if you can't beat 'em, bombard them with pamphlets at the merch stand. -- http://bit.ly/48RnG3G
What's interesting is how the defense of Taylor Swift often focuses on the lack of evidence, while the criticism focuses on the general principle that media influences behavior. They're having different conversations. -- http://bit.ly/48RnG3G
What's noteworthy is how the same story gets framed completely differently across media outlets, from serious public health discussion to entertainment gossip to political commentary. -- http://bit.ly/48RnG3G
There's a story about a dad who is "clutching his pearls" over a pop song while ignoring the actual factors that lead to positive outcomes for teens. He's worried about the soundtrack instead of the script. -- http://bit.ly/48RnG3G
A dad is convinced that TikTok dances are "teaching teenagers to seduce with footwork." He seems to think the path to the delivery room is paved with choreography. -- http://bit.ly/48RnG3G
There's a guy who thinks the solution to fabricated stats about Swifties is to ban rooftop access. He's building a prison for his daughter to protect her from a phantom. -- http://bit.ly/48RnG3G
I read about a father who downgraded his daughter's Spotify to free version to limit her song skips, thinking it would prevent pregnancy. It's the most convoluted form of abstinence-only education I've ever seen. -- http://bit.ly/48RnG3G
This dad's approach to "media literacy" involves treating all media as literacy, which is technically true but misses the point by several miles. -- http://bit.ly/48RnG3G
This man is arguing that Taylor Swift should be "held accountable" for the behavior of her fans. He's demanding a pop star do the job that parents, schools, and communities are failing to do. -- http://bit.ly/48RnG3G
