Then they're bad parents. There are plenty of cartoons my kid isn't allowed to watch. They already have access to far worse if they have the internet. if the parents can't control them watching Netflix, then they likely already have far bigger problems to worry about.

By the way, I am not a fan of Netflix, myself. But I do believe people should be able to provide content that is for adults, and not every single show has to be kid friendly.

Exactly.

After I learned about the YouTube pedo bullshit, guess who's firewall was updated to block YouTube? If you are aware of a product or service that can be used that is detrimental to you or your loved ones, and you still use it, its not their fault. Granted, shit shouldn't be available - but it is - so you have to remain vigilant and block that shit.

I think the issues are:

1 it is pornography

2 it is animated, so it appeals to children

3 children have easy access to netflix.

EDIT to add: To the 4 down voats (at time of edit), can you explain/identify the item(s) which warranted said downvoats? Thank you in advance.

It's also kiddie porn meant to appeal to adults. Hmmmm

You're right, it might only affect lazy or indifferent parents, but this sort of medium is targeting the adolescence of those exact types of families.

Remember when The Simpsons was a cartoon that some parents didn't let their children watch? I don't know of too many parents today that deny their children a show that their children's friends are watching. South Park also comes to mind.

This same argument has been told a thousand times over, often even in TV shows themselves.

It behooves us to remember the wise words of Bender B. Rodriguez;

"Have you ever tried simply turning off the tv, sitting down with your children, and hitting them?"

I just created a kid profile on my Netflix to test if what you said is true, and when I couldn't find the show in question. Neither could I find the new Bill Nye, or Orange is the New Black. It is, however, extremely easy to switch from kid mode to adult mode, and that could pose an issue if you're not closely watching what your kids are watching.
