Any parent of a teenager who isn't ok TikTok is asleep at the wheel. I genuinely believe that.

By the time the boys at my daughter's school started coming out with Andrew Tate crap, we already had her pre-prepped with all of the info she needed about people like Tate, how he operates, what his social media followers and acolytes are all about, plus a full history of Reddit redpill and how to handle those sorts of idiots.

You have to know what you're looking at to nip it in the bud.

At this point in time Andrew Tate has been kidnapped and is basically a political Prisoner.

You should have pre-prepared them on those that actually believe they hold power over you.

He's not a political prisoner, he's a self-confessed pimp being held on sex trafficking charges.

What's more "real" in the life of a teenage girl in the UK, Alf:

1) conspiracy theories about "The Matrix coming for you to hold power over you"

2) cackling teenage boys with ****-eating grins, bullying girls, getting aggressive, and openly threatening sexual assault on a casual Tuesday afternoon in maths class.

I have a daughter who is out there trying to navigate the world around her, full of angry young boys with heads full of pornified nonsense peddled to them by a goblin-faced sex trafficking incel. She's not sat at home on the couch, browsing the internet and getting worried about the grand political tides of the New World Order. Get a grip. I can tell you for a fact that she's more at risk from the bitter, jaded redpill lads at her school than she is from some vague "holders of power out there somewhere".

Sounds like you're raising her to be a man hater. So she'll never have a real man about to protect her, she'll only have her cats.

Cats are great though


Sounds like TS is raising his daughters to be able to protect themselves and find a partner who respects them

You clearly have no idea the effect that social media presences like Tate have had on young boys Alf. These lads are putting their hands round girl's necks for saying no to going to the cinema with them. Certainly not about man hating, anyone who has these boys best interests at heart will keep them as far away from these influences as possible, because they're otherwise going to end up sad & alone on Reddit forums talking about how awful women are... for the rest of their lives.

That's if they don't end up getting so frustrated and violent with someone that they end up in jail instead.

What's the difference with Tate talking about how woeful women are and the tens of thousands of women who talk about how woeful men are?
