U.S. Judge Blocks 1998 Online Porn Law

I saw a couple other threads about this earlier today that I no longer can find, stuck at a job and did not bring my laptop, that for the most part sided with its the parents job to filter their system according to their own guidelines.

One analogy was that the internet is the super highway to the world so would you give them the keys to your car and let your child drive anywhere they want.

I told this one to my buddy few months back. You will not let your daughter date yet but you allow her to go online in her room with the door closed and no filtering system because you "believe" you can trust her. All children will push limits just for the sake of doing so, even the really good ones. This thought process, for whatever reason, did not cross his mind.

JustRobert,

That is a damn good point Of what you said to your friend. Really good point. There are parents all the time letting their kids just go in their room with no supervision whatsoever...and we think that they are no going to push the limit. I caught my 12 year old son the other day chatting with 18 yr old girls. (that damn stud..lol.) Just kiddin', but the point is, he's underage and don't need to be talking to older girls like that, and same goes for my daughter. Needless to say, I had to take the computer privelages away from him for awhile.
