That's just wrong.  While I'm not one for wrapping kids in cotton wool, there
are limits, and there's too much explicit stuff pushed in front of peoples'
faces on the Internet.

Agree.

wasn't so comfortable talking about sex, but I did manage to find mostly good
sources, fortunately.

 KK> Bad parenting is what creates sexual predators IMHO.

I think the causes are complex, though that's more than likely a major
contributing factor.
