If your child had a friend over, would you subject them to this, without their parent's consent?

As a parent, there are a lot of decisions that are taken out of the parent's hands. Louis CK has a great bit about this and notes that in this country we get to "choose" what and when we expose our children to things. People have this unreasonable righteous indignation when it comes to exposing their "kids" to these types of things (kids is in quotes because 14-15 yr olds aren't kids).
Pretending like this book is an important decision for a parent of a 14-15 year old to decide whether to "expose" their children too is flat out ridiculous. Getting pissed about it even more so.
