At the risk of sounding like an ass (but, what else is new)...what are you basing your thoughts/opinions on? Seriously. I mean, I'm a parent, and while I'm not stalinistic about it, I do monitor, quite closely, what my kids...ingest. Most parents that I know either do as I do, and use the ratings/age recommendation (for toys) as a guideline, or rigidly adhere to the label. In fact, I'd be hard pressed to identify any parent that expreses such a laissez-faire attitude as you're describing. Not to say that they do not exist...I know that they're out there...I just question the use of the word "most" parents.
