I really don't see the effectiveness of the "adult content" flag is someone who's not logged in can simply click on the "yes I'm over 14" button and see the post anyway. I suppose it makes it easier for the people who truly want to avoid such content, but otherwise I think it would attract pre-teens more than deter them.

As the others have said, I think it's LJ coveringt heir own asses. In a way, I think it's awesome - it shifts the blame to the kids and their parents. It's an *honor* system. If the kid sees something the parents don't want them to and the parents catch them, the parents have to acknowledge that it's their own fault, and not LJ's. Just like it's their fault if the kid sneaks into an R-rated movie or steals porno.

"Hey, we told them it was inappropriate, it's not our fault your 12-year-old lied" - which is were the blame actually should be, with the parents.

I'll probably end up flagging my fanworks journal anyway.
