I think you are missing the point. Certainly a parent has a moral obligation to work to build candor, trust, and communication. However, depending on the circumstances that effort may not be fully successful; which is why it might be useful to also have additional systems in place such as regulation on what media providers can provide to children. In other words, my objection is not to your assertion that parents should work to develop trusting and respectful relationships with their children. Nor do I disagree that such relationships would go a long ways towards addressing media consumption. My disagreement is with the idea that it is always possible to be completely successful.
