How to block My Story Animated on YouTube

What is My Story Animated?

My Story Animated, now branded MSA, publishes animated first-person stories pitched as true confessions. Plots cover school drama, family secrets and relationships at daily volume.

Is My Story Animated appropriate for kids?

The cartoon style reads young while the plots run on mature situations: teen pregnancy, abusive relationships, stalking and betrayal, framed as sensational entertainment rather than guidance. The thumbnails alone carry most of the shock value. It is consistently one of the channels parents are most surprised to find in a preteen's history.

Whether that fits your child is your call. If you decide to block the channel, here is how.

Does YouTube have a built-in way to block a channel?

Not really. YouTube's "Don't recommend channel" option only trims the home feed. My Story Animated still shows up in search results, in Shorts and through direct links, and your child can undo the setting in two clicks. Restricted Mode filters some mature content but cannot target a specific channel. That gap is exactly what Vidward covers.
