No in the terms that we're talking about, it's not. In our society parents
are legally and morally responsible for their children's upbringing and
their protection. By any standards that includes taking some responsibility
for what they see and experience. It's not externally applied censorship in
any of the ways we've been discussing it; it's self-censorship. To deny
parents the ability to do this if it's technically possible and has no
effect on others is oppressive and denies then their rights just as much as
externally applied censorship does.
