I'm a little sick of "it's the lazy parents fault if their kids see something they shouldn't." TV and radio signals are broadcast pretty much nonstop. Turning on TV or radio requires the cognitive and motor skills most children possess by age three. Assuming there is no censorship of any kind, and the networks take full advantage of this lack of censorship, for a parent to guarantee their children don't see what they shouldn't would require endless supervision; it would be unpleasant for both the adults and children.
