Just roll all this back 40 years and sue TV broadcasters instead :) Nothing ever changes.

I think it could change, here in the US ... whenever it's clearly demonstrated that that's what's going on ... and if parents then pressure legislators (if they can find enough willing to fight corporate interests) to control it. In the meantime, 'saving the children' will be up to parents who take measures themselves.

Parents will get the behavior they reinforce. My mom, whenever I asked for ANYTHING I saw on TV, NEVER responded. Kids that scream when the phone's taken away should NEVER get them back.
