It’s a device specifically created to deprive children of creativity by doing all of the work their mind would do for them. The kind of process required for healthy childhood mental development.
It is heinously disgusting and morally repugnant, everyone involved with creating it and bringing it to market should be ashamed of themselves.
You could've said the same about the first wooden toys putting an end to children having to use their imagination to make playing with sticks and pebbles fun, but you didn't, because what you grew up with gets a pass.
You're arguing that the Stickerbox is bad because it spares children from using their imagination and I was saying that the first wooden toys did the same thing.
In what ways do you believe the first toys stop children from using their imagination? Essentially the entirety of developmental psychology agrees that inanimate toys are essential for developing imagination and fine motor skills. This is not something someone with experience in child development or safety would say.
And asbestos just gives you a little cough. If I weren't already so cynical, this entire thread would certainly do it. You people are so goddamn dismissive in the most repulsive, condescending way.
Is your issue with stickers robbing kids of creativity or do all the licensed IP stickers that fill the stores that children buy immune from this criticism?
No it’s not, and you know it. If a child wants dino stickers for something they are doing, I see no difference of them obtaining those stickers from Walmart or from a printer in their house. In both scenarios, the dinosaurs were not designed by the child. at least in the AI example they can customize to their wants. You don’t seem willing to thoughtfully engage in conversation. Why even post here in first place?
What is the difference between buying your child a dino sticker and buying them a machine that creates whatever stickers they want without having to think or look at anything, derived entirely from stolen artwork by others?
You might as well say there’s no difference between a rock and a semi truck.
You don’t seem willing to have an honest conversation, just assert ridiculous nonsense and call it a rebuttal - there is nothing thoughtful about your replies to me.
