I love the fact that most of the material on LP is kid-friendly, and that there are actually kids participating on these boards on occasion. I wish there were more of them. Would it make sense to set aside certain sections for, shall we say, "kid-unfriendly" posts? I realize this would require work by the administrators, but would it really be more work than dealing with the constant battles over what is or isn't a violation of Community Standards? Just my $.02.

There are plenty of them out there.
