"In March, for instance, Accurso posted a video of two children watching a Ms. Rachel video amid rubble. The caption read: “My friends Celine and Silia in what used to be their home in Gaza. They deserve to live in a warm, safe home again.”

On Monday, Accurso posted to her Instagram account photos of a meeting she said she had last week with Rahaf, a 3-year-old girl from Gaza who lost her legs in an airstrike, and the child’s mother. The meeting was arranged through the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund."

    I think in small doses, exposing children to the similar sins and messages in the show can be beneficial, yes. Why do you think coco melon is the only thing in kids YouTube? You seem to be singing your entire argument on this one show. There’s better shows available out there, AND far worse.
