I've always said if you want to make the Internet a safe place for kids, then you need top make a separate playground for them. No parent would let their kid play on a highway full of traffic. So why do they think it's ok to let them play on the information super highway?
That's the best explanation I've seen on this so far. I love how people always want to "make things safe for the kids" instead of doing their jobs as parents and monitoring their activities. But I guess it's a lot easier to toss them in their rooms with cable tv and internet access as a babysitter than to actually pay attention to them. We as adults should suffer so they as parents don't have to be inconvenienced by their kids...
