Society plays a role, but like raising a dog, it's on the parents to socialize them and teach them how to interface with it safely. Society cannot progress if the adults have to live in a child safe box. There must be places safe for children, but it's the parents who have to keep them from sticking their fingers in plug sockets, not putting the burden on having a third party validate their access to electrons. If you send your child to a bar, they'll see alcohol - if you send them to the internet, they'll find the internet. I'm happy to tell you you shouldn't do that with your kids, but if you do it with yours, it's not on me to stop drinking at bars.
