"...it is better to let them find out at their *own* pace rather then what you think their pace should be..."
That is complete nonsense. Children don't know what is best for them. That's what parents are supposed to be there for to make decisions that are in their best interest until they are old enough to do so for themselves.
"Unless your child wants to visit hate sites then they won't see them."
More BS. You obviously don't have kids. They could be given a url from someone or be sent something in spam or instant messaged a url. Most kids will just click on the link and go to the site. They may not have any idea what the site is about but they will go there out of blind curiosity.
The bottom line is that parents need a way to limit their childrens exposure to things they deem inappropriate. If you don't have kids don't use the software and shut the fuck up.
