Our smart TV doesn't allow an ad blocker on YouTube, but my kids have developed a way to skip ads anyway. They don't tolerate ads more than I do, and I couldn't be prouder.
Man you must be a good parent. I can only aspire that my future kids are this smart
Positive comments like yours are like jet fuel for new parents. :)
Jailbreak your TV and install a third party launcher and SmartTube. It gave my Sony TV a new lease on life after it was almost smothered to death by ads, even on the home screen.
Install downloader, then go get SmartTube TV.
