The author of "The Mommy Brain: How Motherhood Makes Us Smarter" fulminates about violent Flash cartoons warping her children's fragile little minds. She was all liberal and everything until this happened but now, NOW society has gone too far.

I can sympathize with parents' worry about their kids encountering stuff they don't want them to on the Internet. I'm going to have to deal with something like this someday, I'm sure, and it's never easy.

What mostly takes me aback about these little moral panics is how surprised the parents always are. Who could ever be so sick as to think of cartoon characters decapitating each other? How dare they use Flash to subvert my Net Nanny filter? I thought it was safe!!
