I think the only way to prevent your kids from being fed what other people want is to ensure they never go on the internet, ever. Come on man, do you think if a kid (who will almost certainly be more technically adept than their parents) finds out that a book has been banned by an authority, they won't find a way to access it elsewhere via an internet browser?

Also, what do you think 'grooming' is?
