Sorry Joe, but all you mentioned and more is available to kids
That is why being a parent is the most important and bigest line of defense. The law and law enforcement is pretty much a joke.

Parents often expose their children to booze. Not at age 6 but in early teens it is not unheard of. Drugs!?! Give me a break. PLEASE!!!

Also there is the whole concept of just what every individual judges as harmful and pornographic. I tend to think (based on your reply) that much if not all nudity would be considered at least somewhat pornographic to you, and any parent that would allow their children yes even teens to see such would be shocking and immoral, and should be illegal...drag the parents off to jail and such. Me...If I had a teenage boy, I'd probably buy his his very first subscription to Playboy, and do the same for my teenage daughter..uh not Playboy (unless she swung that way mind you) but Playgirl and the like.
