Children and Censorship

One of the arguments against the abolishment of censorship is that censorship is here to help protect the children. I think that it is really up to parent’s to decide what children should and should not be looking at. Just because it is offensive for one person, does not mean we should block all potential viewings of that material. All computers come with a way to block out offensive searches and pictures, even the web browser Google chrome can block out searches with their safe search feature. There should be freedom of speech for everyone that is not dictated by the select few. Certain types of art can be offensive and were in fact painted in such a way to offend; but we do not cordon off museums. Parents have the ability to take their children with them if they want to see it. Guardians know what is best for their children and should be able to make that decision for themselves.
