Imagine a world where informed parents used filtering software that they controlled.
That's the way it should be done, but do you honestly think that will happen anytime soon? Besides, parents can't just slap a program on there and expect it to do all the work for them - they should be there when the kid is on the net.
Besides, a smart kid will eventually figure out how to bypass the program and look at whatever he wants to. It's a lot harder to do that if Dad or Mom are sitting there watching.
