Kids are so addicted to YouTube!

By: Cadence Wright

Every kid I know is hooked on Youtube. It’s better than TV! Even the baby’s at church will sit still and be quiet if you let them watch Youtube during service. It’s so addictive! My brother and I watch a lot of Youtube. My dad says we need help because we are addicted.

Kids love to watch the games on Youtube. People who are good at the games show you tricks and clues to help you win the games you love to play. I watch Niniga because I play Fortnite a lot.

The best weapon to use on Fortnite is the Heavy Sniper and the Bolt. I also watch Little Lizard Fortnite videos on Youtube. He makes a lot of Fortnite short films and sometimes he plays the game in the playground or Battle Royale.

You can also watch TV Shows on Youtube. Our family is anti-cable. We are a 100% streaming house. Because I don’t have cable, sometimes I see my favorite shows later than they come on. On Youtube I can see all the episodes for free. I have school every day. So, I really have to watch most of the shows on the weekends. I love the CW shows like Flash, Arrow, Black Lightning, and Supergirl. You can watch all these shows on your phone for free.

Kids don’t have time to watch a full NFL Game or a full NBA Game. We have things to do. So, on Youtube there are tons of people who post the best clips from the game. Instead of watching the whole game it’s easier to just watch the good parts. Why would I sit there and watch a whole 15 minutes of nothing just to get to the one person who finally dunked? Just watch the clip when somebody posts it and it’s just like watching the whole game. You don’t miss anything important.

A lot of people who are rally good at basketball post ‘Help’ videos. They show you a move. Then, it’s up to you to go outside and practice the move you watched on the Youtube video. That’s what I do. I watch a lot of the professional tutorial basketball videos. Then, I go outside and practice that shot or that move. My favorite player is Lebron James. You should all know that by now.

He is the only person who can do the things Michael Jordan used to do. Lebron has a lot of Youtube videos.

Grown people are addicted to Youtube just as kids are. They watch cooking shows and learn new ways to cook stuff. A whole lot of women watch those hair videos and they comb their hair in the styles they saw on Youtube videos. Some people can’t go to church and they watch their church service on Youtube.

Youtube knows it’s biggest supporters are kids. So, they sneak ads and undercover videos that you have to pay for on their site. Most kids don’t know it and they get stuff by accident. I bought the movie Suicide Squad one time on my parents’ account by accident. I learned that lesson real quick. Plus, you might also get a virus by downloading videos with viruses attached to them. I just be careful and enjoy the few hours I get to have fun on Youtube whenever I can!
