I'm not kidding myself. My kids aren't that old, 23, 22 and 19. I didn't have a problem monitoring their tv habits, and today as adults, they appreciate what we did for them. Your solution is to let the government decide what's appropriate for your kids to watch, and not you, you're to incompentent to teach your kids, you who know your kids better than any congressional body.
The parents could use a little help. Of course, if you don't have a job and stay home all day and night with your kids, then it isn't a problem. Unless you go take a shower or something and they switch the channel.
