Done!
Also, I'd like to object to the leading questions. Of course parents should watch their kids and of course kids lie to their parents. That's almost a no-brainer. Those questions seem to imply that I think that the quasi-censorship of artistic media of any kind is ok. Informed parental consent is the one and only acceptable form of censorship out there.
