time online and have controls over the content they see. I don't know what kind of devices they have now, but the kids usually have found ways around different forms of control. They see some awful shit. I would've loved it when I was a kid. of course, when I was a teenager, I thought the wickedest thing to see was nudity. I couldn't punch a few keys on a computer and get mindfucked by some sadists. And the internet is really just getting started. Just imagine the surprises in store.
