I just dont get it.
I read about this woman who took her kid into a pub late at night and complained people swore!!!!
I know people that merrily use the TV as a baby sitter!
If children are allowed freerange roaming over the internet, then you have to accept the side effects of that.
I know BE is for everyone, Im just saying that parts of it are not suitable for young kids.
Bad language can be posted anywhere at anytime on any site, how do you make it child friendly and how do you sort it to make it 'suitable' for different age groups?
Do we reduce the intellect to suit the average 7 year old?
I so cannot believe that a cartoon character could be seen as sexy.
Jessica Rabbit, my god - does that cause offence?
Please tell me a pair of breasts hasnt started all of this?
I suppose we all have levels of what causes offence don't we?
Its down to parents to censor what their kids see on the net - thats the bottom line.

answer 24?? If you re read it Matt was just posting his views on the ridiculous view that there was no bureaucratic crap in Aus. When i read the thread i pissed myself and thought the exact same thing but couldn't be bothered. He quoted no one. PUK took it as a personal attack and ONLY then did it become heated. Re read it

so are you one of those mums who rolls the car because you're trying to cover juniors eyes when someone in a short skirt walks by?

I'm pleased to see the mod agreed with me as you've changed it now.
It was far, far worse than a pair of cartoon 'flutterscutters.'
