@melissarand: So, my kid got a middle finger emoji texted to her by a classmate, and now I’m wondering, why does a huge company like Apple even include that on the emoji keyboard? I’m sparking a debate here: is it harmless fun or totally out of line? Drop your thoughts below. I’d love to hear them! #EmojiDebate #MiddleFingerEmoji #ParentingMoments #TechQuestions #KidDrama #AppleEmoji #SchoolLife #DebateTime #WhatDoYouThink #EmojiEthics #emoji #Drama #SpillTheTea @Apple #Apple

If a child is not old enough to understand the usage of that emoji and when it is appropriate, and when it is not, it is likely that child is not old enough to have a phone either.

It’s always been on there.

I bet it would end the same way teddy did

chris? :

It’s part of Unicode. Apple can’t control what is added to Unicode. They add it so they aren’t behind, because it would just show a question mark if Apple didn’t implemented making people confused

My phone isn't an apple, but I use this emoji! It's highly appropriate at times!

Because the phone wasn’t made for little kids if you don’t want your kid to get it texted to them you shouldn’t have given them a phone

the wod cant be censored around what you are okay with your child seeing. regardless of the emoji youre child will likely see that gesture at school aswell. i understand it may not be pleasant but
