Yes, easy to blame the parents, and I do for most of society's problems. But the internet is moving far, far faster than the average parent is aware of - face it, more than half the readers here make money on the basis that their understanding of the Internet is superior to that of the average Joe Parent. When the day dawns that the Internet is 'mature', and the average person knows what's what, fine; blame the parents and let the predators and their Internet pals take their chances. But for the moment, denying that websites have some responsibility is giving away other people's kids. And maybe your own, to those that have them.
All fine and dandy, but we are talking about Children, being taken advantage of by people who know the Internet MUCH better than the average child.
