LiveJournal have changed their policy on security. There is now an option in 'Settings' where you can choose if your LJ has 'Adult Concepts' or 'Adult Content'. The former is mature themes and such like, the latter is for boobies and such like. I've changed my settings to 'Adult Concepts' because one of the kids at school found my Arsebook account and if they ever found LJ some of my posts are school related and not subtle.
It's still shameless net-nannying though. Pandering to a meme that says the Internet is dangerous. Lack of education is dangerous - teach your kids right from wrong and they won't need government babysitting. Teach your children to be twats and they will. I say this after an eleven and a half hour school day yesterday where I had to explain to a number of parents that their kids was an arse and needed to be dealt with. In most of these cases, the parents showcased their poor parenting during the meeting.
Apparently we're no longer teachers, but 'learning facilitators'.
