Is a parent shitty if, for example, their kids see stuff on the device another kid brought to school and shows around? Or when they visit a friend and their older sibling shows the kids something?

You all sound like 20 year olds with little life experience who believe you know how parenting works, when in actuality you have 0 idea about it.

    Well, I've parented three children, so no.

    Also— there is no reality in which a parent can completely control everything a child sees / interacts with. Nor should they, that's not a healthy growing environment. Neither is one where the government does the same. And I don't think they would by doing this—it would be just as successful as a parent trying. Because laws prohibiting stuff doesn't make them disappear, people would still talk about stuff, and your child would still be mildly exposed in some way.

    My point was that if a parent wants to try to limit what their child sees, that's their prerogative. I do not, however, think it's the government's.
