I'd say 18+ or parental consent.
A lot of parents know it's gonna happen anyway. Some will be reasonable enough to do it IF THEY THINK THEIR KID IS READY. But as long as it's this openly available, no one's going to really ask their parents.

Anyways, about the topic and article... Can't see the article but I see TRD's first response. I'm on the fence. I know I'll be a less-restrictive parent. People are over-sensitive, especially in the US, about sex. It's bad. But at the same time, I wouldn't want a before-puberty kid of mine running into this stuff. But that is prevented by basic software. During-after puberty? I'd encourage and teach my child(ren) about the topic and discuss all of this with them. It wouldn't be a big deal but at the same time I wouldn't want them going being exposed to everything that the internet has early on.... So I guess.... I agree with the judge. |

I'm not sure how it would be determined, but something would have to determine it(as in, something kids can't get, but adults can, but not something like an ID or a credit card or other personally ID-able stuff).

Okay, I'll try to promote some discussion here: Parental paranoia doesn't help. Disallowing kids to look at pornographic stuff seems to be the moral and rational thing to do, but it truly isn't. Let your kids learn and experiment small-time before curiosity drives them to stupidly have sex. Most kids need to stimulate their sex drives, just like some kids need to stimulate their craving for violence via video games (crime rate drop since the arrival of the PS, anyone?) and rid their stress via punching a pillow or something like that. This method of stimulation is not and has never been uncommon and it lets things slowly come out until they are grown out of instead of keeping them bottled up. So why aren't kids going crazy despite this parental drawback? Simple: kids already have easy access to porn and frequently access it. But allowing kids to watch porn promotes sexual security. Seriously, I don't think I've ever been comfortable talking about anything related to girls or sex to anyone, especially my parents. I just pulled the "yeah mom I haven't hit puberty don't talk to me about that stuff" act until I was at the age where that just wouldn't work. Then I just made it clear I didn't want to talk about that. I was too insecure because I was not in an environment where I felt that I could talk about that without getting in trouble or being stupid. Allowing kids to watch porn is quite possibly the easiest way to promote this. Nothing speaks louder than giving your kid a PlayBoy.

It'd be a lot easier to talk about of parents didn't make it seem like this terrible and awful thing that will ruin lives and make people think less of women, or whatever those stereotypes say. In fact, it'd probably be easier to talk about than saying to your parents something like "hey, I like this girl at school" or something along those lines if it were viewed as being a positive thing rather than a negative.
Will it hurt SOME people? Well yeah, but under this ruling, it'd only be to the fault of the parents.

If you restrain people, especially kids, to do something, chances are they'll want to do it even more.
All of my friends that don't drink (or at least not irresponsably) have their parents let them take alcohol if they wish, without restraining them (maybe on the quantity, but actually not that much). I think it's the same with sex.

Restraining will, for the most part, make the kids want to grow up. To be more responsible, even if it's just to get what they want. It'll be more helpful in the end, and there's really no way to make anything perfect. Personally, I think this would be the most reasonable way to do things.

Generally, people who want it THAT badly are usually ready*. Most people, however, first find it out of curiosity when they aren't ready most of the time.
*There are exceptions to everything. I'm sure you've known someone really immature who would always brag about sex. But that doesn't mean we should restrict EVERYONE. And hey, nothing's perfect. But this will be awfully effective.

I don't know many kids ready for sex, and let me tell you that quite a few want it pretty badly. I mean, 3 kids in our grade last year were pregnant. That makes 6 complete idiots when it comes to sex.

Holy ****... what a bunch of ****ing idiots. Yes, most humans are dolts. And it's impossible to set ground rules for everybody, since some people are more mature and intelligent than others, and it would be unfair for them to suffer the restrictions also applied to the stupid ones.

"Hey mom, is it alright if I go to this site to watch porn?" "Nah, that site's weak, try this one"

Totally off topic, but IDC!!! Now, on topic, this entire issue comes down to personal choice. If you feel that pornography is bad, then don't expose yourself to it. However, don't think that if you have kids, they aren't going to find out about it. If you think your kids should stay away from pornographic material, then talk to them about it! Be sane, and accepting of the fact that they are people, and not just your little slaves! =P Explain your reasons for disliking porn, and be ready for some really weird questions from them. And on the off chance that they look it up anyway, get over it! Kids are curious, and BLAMming the sites with firewalls will just make them more careful about making sure you don't find out. A little sanity and decency goes a loooong way. *I hearby withdraw from this topic unless an insane amount of stupidity shows up and I feel the need to rant* ~cow~ |

Erm, whoever deleted it, please undelete my post or at least tell me why my post was deleted. I thought it was pretty informative. There's such a large number of mods who could've done it that I can't even think of all of the ones and PM each of them.
