You all did read the story on GAF about the guy who's NNID got banned because he let his neice draw a picture and post it on Miiverse right? Nothing violent, nothing that a child couldn't see. The issue was that "A child needs parental permission to use an adult account".

Now if I were on my account and allowed my family member to draw a nice picture I would be subjected to moderation. Not just that, but how do they know whether or not a child got permission? You would assume they knew since the drawing said on it "A picture drawn by my neice", meaning she was supervised and given permission.

I thought they promoted family spending time together and enjoying the WiiU.

It is obvious there is a problem here right now.

Well I think letting a child post in an adult's account violates the Terms of Use.  I mean that's been known since the Wii U launched.  If they find that a child is using an adult's account they will moderate it because they don't want that to happen, as most of the time the child is probably using it without consent and just imagine on a social network a child posting something like "my mom/dad just hit me" or some kind of disturbing drawing that is clearly from a troubled child in crisis.  Or something like that. 

So if my daughter wants to make a picture she must first log out, then log back in under the children's account just to post that picture on the same exact Miiverse?

I am guessing family gaming only applies to when your customers are on a children's account?

 

Just seems redundant to me. If you disagree that's fine. I am only stating my opinion on the situation.

I mean, in my opinion, there should be a separate version of Miiverse for only children, just like Netflix has their main catalogue and a separate 'Netflix for Kids'.   That way there aren't any situations where a child unknowingly is talking to an adult and the conversation turns into something inappropriate.   I truly understand why Nintendo is so harsh with their modding, since it's a Nintendo system with little children as well as adults playing their games, not to mention no other console has a dedicated social network.   It is a unique, unprecedented situation.
