    Yea, but if your kids participates in hobbies that share the info only via whatsapp, you can be the ignorant parent or the difficult parent or just go along…

      Love how some people pretend to be special or unique here. And most likely just for fake karma points.

        Because I have an opinion? If I’d care for “karma” I’d be on reddit lol. But dude, go with the flow and consume the default. Couldn’t care less about what you do.

      Luckily i got no kids with some weird hobbies that require WA. And if I’d be in that position, I would still not use it. I don’t like to be extorted, even not for “just an app”. Be part of the problem or the solution.

        It’s not just weird hobbies here, but basically all that are somehow organized.
        Also a lot of relevant school information is only shared within parent groups on WhatsApp.
        My complete WhatsApp-boycott lasted exactly until the first of my childs entered school… :-(

          Crap that surely sucks ass. Luckily i avoided having kids, so that’ll never be a problem. But that’s the problem with that crap, so many just using it because others do. And hence help keeping crap afloat 😒
