Censorship "for the family"



All these things have one thing in common: they have all been (attempted at being) censored at one point or another by people concerned about their "family values".

See, here's the thing: these fucking parents think that since they don't like something, it should be eliminated entirely.

Yeah, that's right. Just because YOU feel the need to trap YOUR kids in a bubble, everyone else in the planet has to remain inside that bubble as well.

You can't control the entire world based on your parenting methods. You don't spank people on the street for being out after your kid's curfew. This may surprise you, but the entire world does not stop and start at your command.

And parental overprotectiveness--WTF?

Newsflash: The actual world contains hatred, sex, passion, profanity, depth, sorrow, death, torture, pain, and disappointment. And if you try to shelter your kid from that forever and ever, your kid will be psychologically fucked. This happened to a girl I knew, where her mom protected her from everything, and she ended up sticking her hand in hydrochloric acid.

You're doing your kids wrong if you try to stunt them.

I'm not saying that kids should start watching porn, but seriously....
