From what Bill says, I don't think I want it either
Besides, if you threw me up there, I'd recommend that everything have a legit warning page, thus squashing every TGP & gallery maker's business model  |
Just out of curiosity. Do you believe that a warning page would ever stop a minor from cicking YES I'm OVER 18? I mean, they are stealing thier parents credit cards, what makes people think a warning page will stop them?
Don't get me wrong, I WANT minors to stay the hell out of viewing adult content. I just believe the FCC and many others are forgetting one thing...PARENTS...they should have a role in monitoring thier children.
The government can create a xxx or whatever. They can make us in the adult industry jump through hoops. They can take every single precaution available and it is STILL going to happen because parents are NOT doing their jobs.
I have kids and I have a 10 year old that loves spending time on the net. She has her own login to the computer. She has bookmarks of where she is allowed to go on the net.
She has a little book that she can write down the names of sites she has heard about from friends or TV. We check the sites out, if it is something we approve of, it is added to her list of approved sites and she is allowed to go there.
She is never allowed on the computer unless someone is in the room with her and actually glancing at her screen frequently to make sure everything is ok. She is not allowed a MySpace account, she is not allowed to have her own email address, nor is she allowed to have instant messaging or go to chat rooms. My older children went through the same rules and regulations when they were young. We taught them safe surfing, we took part in their online activities and we discussed the dangers of the internet. I see no difference between this and teaching your child how to drive safely or how to protect themselves when out with friends etc. It is part of the being a parent.
