I let my kids have access to TOTLOL until the site sent my kids inappropriate, suggestive email. Then I asked Ron, the guy that runs TOTLOL to shut down my kids account, AND HE WOULD NOT DO IT! It has the worst parental controls ever, you can't turn it off. Just look around the site, there is no possible way to shut down an account. I'm pretty sure there is a law that specifies how you are supposed to handle children's data online and I'm pretty sure Ron's policy violates it.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about why a site like this is necessary. How does the content on this site differ from "regular" YouTube? Explain to your kids why you don't want them just going straight to YouTube. Also talk about what kids should do if they come across any videos on this site that make them uncomfortable or that they just don't like. Parents: Do you want them to show you, or would you prefer they move on to the next thing? Check to see if kids know what the control buttons do on this site (and others): play/pause buttons, the right-top close button "X," screen and volume adjustment buttons, etc.
