    i agree with you 100%, but baby shark was so viral, it reached every child, regardless if their parents used the screen as a babysitter

        You, seemingly deliberately, misunderstood my message.

        Baby Shark was astoundingly pervasive and the only way to have missed out on it was to be belligerently unobservant.

        I’ll take the benefit of doubt and assume you’re not a contrarian asshole and just took a wierd interpretation.

        The interpretation I got (and most people based on the comments) is that the audience did not get it because they do not take care of their children so they aren’t aware of viral songs anymore with children have heard.

            Parents using a screen as a babysitter is child abuse. I never done that with my kids, we did watch TV together, and I shared stuff I liked, but not once leave them unnatended.

            Absolutely hated when my ex did that, especially because how toxic the YouTube “watch next” algorithm is for kids. even with YT kids.
