I was simply using porn as an example of something that could be deemed as "free speech". Suppose he watched it, as many other kids with irresponsible parents who saw nothing wrong with their kids watching it. Next, kids are trying what they see on t.v. as soon as their parts function like that.
Like I said, that was simply one example I used if people want to claim "free speech". You have to draw the line somewhere. I understand there is a degree of sex, violence, etc. on t.v. that kids have access to now. It is the responsibility of the parents to monitor/prohibit viewing this. And what is on t.v. now is within the guidelines. Imagine if there were no guidelines! Let kids be innocent for as long as they can be.
I'm just curious Toothpick, do you have kids? If you do/plan on having them, would you let them watch anything that was on t.v. (porn, extreme violence, extreme cussing, torture)?

The problem is parents aren't being parents.
If I had a five year old I would block the channels that aired that kind of programming. If something I didn't like suddenly appeared on television that I didn't want my kid watching like the Super Bowl halftime show I wouldn't let them watch television anymore if I felt that strongly about it. It's pretty easy to deal with.
