Finally. As a parent, I can't begin to tell you how long overdue this is.

I try to sit with my kids every time they're on youtube, or at least require that they stick to certain channels, but even then it can go bad really quick. Especially with the crap that can show up in suggested videos.

Good to know we'll have an alternative besides something lame like godtube. And maybe this will us cable cutters some more options for kids.

I hope this caters to different age ranges, rather than just toddlers like Netflix kids. The image above doesn't give much hope, though. It's tough to find age appropriate content for in the middle pre-teen kids.

Makes perfect sense. Where else are kids going to get their fix of viral cat videos and guys getting hit in the crotch? :lol:

This is a great idea! Even though i'm a lot older than 10, i would love this to filter all the youtube junk videos that are on their site.

Please make a special website also, not just apps!

That's exactly what I was thinking.
