this is how I’ve been for about 20 years now. I ditched cable for Netflix mail dvds when my oldest kid was 5 and told me “I’d get a blue toy free with my paid order.”

I pay for ad-free subscriptions for services. When they start showing ads, I cancel. This is for music, YouTube, and online streaming services. Also Reddit.

My kids haven’t been exposed to ads while under my control to do so, and it really shows. Now all in high school or older, they are critical thinkers, especially about promises for miracle products of any kind.
