    Kids read newspapers, watch TV and listen to the radio and they are
exposed to the same sort of stuff at the same levels as on csa2.  Maybe
you should clean up those media as well.  The point is, if teachers
don't think the material here is suitable for their students, they can
restrict access to the newsgroup.  The language on here isn't as bad as
you suggest.  There's always misc.kids.* for the pre-high school set.

    Sorry, that's never going to work, so don't even bother trying. 
You'd be wasting your time, Joe.
