I don't understand what any of this has to do with offloading responsibility onto parents (that are often irresponsible). Either it's the parents' responsibility or it isn't. Can't have it both ways.
I don't agree with ID-gating the internet but I also don't agree that we should rely on parents to somehow watch their kids 24/7 and pretend like none of them are shitty and that children don't need protection from shitty parents.
We need to just accept that kids are going to be exposed to that shit, like they have been for the last 30 years.
...I'm intrigued, what's the "easy fix"?
