But she has to learn that she will be facing prejudice and oppression all too soon. I would have liked to break the news a bit later, but the news show forced it rather brutally out into the open. It also shuts out reality. And this does not prepare a child for adulthood. Learning how to deal with the evil in the world is the only healthy way to grow.
Censorship is a political choice.
Organizations on the right, like the American Family Association, aren't immune either. But many people in charge of computer systems use filters as a shield. Recent court rulings, fortunately, have established that access providers and libraries are not responsible for content provided by other sites. Still, libraries fear lawsuits both from parents who discover their children reading material they disapprove of, and from staff who may claim that pornography creates a harassing environment. I believe filters are so pathetically incompetent that they could increase liability rather than reduce it.
