I would have to agree with you Austin. I think it is important for parents to be informed. I do support proper labeling of programs. I am also not completely against ratings such as R where you have to have a parents permission to purchase the product. In all reality, though, kids will find a way to buy it anyway just like the see R rated movies if they a really want to. That doesn't make it right though. Parents need to stay informed as much as possible about where their kids are in their lives. They also need the tools available (reviews, ratings, labeling etc.) to make educated choices. To take away all of our choices though is not the right thing to do. I wish we lived in a world where people didn't WANT to make bad choices, but such are the facts.
