Is Pink Shirt Girl safe for kids?
Pink Shirt Girl’s videos are mostly comedy and personal stories, but preview them before letting your kid watch alone: one hair-growth challenge makes unsupported claims about a DIY routine, and one challenge includes a failed Coke-and-Mentos stunt that sends it up the nose. The videos also discuss online appearance-based bullying, while responding with encouragement rather than endorsing it.
