Following rules



                            Dear Girls’ World,

                I love YouTube videos, but my

             parents limit the amount of time


            I can spend watching them. It’s so


                   annoying! — Sad subscriber


                    There are so many cool videos on

             YouTube that it probably feels like you could
             watch all day long and still not get enough. The

              truth is, it’s not a great idea to watch YouTube

              for that long, which is why your parents put

              their rule in place. When it’s time to turn                                  Max, Sydney gets

              YouTube off, why not do your own YouTube-                                    so frustrated when

               own unboxing videos with your toys, make
               crafts with supplies around the house or do

               silly sketches with your friends. You’ll have so                                        Test trauma
