  Re: Yes, it is the FCC's job

  Actually, no... it's not the FCC's job to play parent to kids. That's (MAJOR SHOCKER) the parent's job. Parents need to actually get off their butts and take charge, not let their kids run rampant.
  
  Parents aren't supposed to be a full day's source of asspats, they're supposed to be leadership for their children. It's called responsibility. I know, I know... hard concept to work with, right?
  
  Kid doesn't like being told "No"? Too bad, so sad. Parent's house, parent's rules. Suck it up, princess.

  Google must have ninjas in Viacom's offices uploading to YouTube from employee terminals.
