It's called a warning page because that's what's been deduced as the best model for free sites...at least for now...and has been for some time. Yes, it is a feeble attempt at cya...but it IS an attempt nonetheless.
Good...I'm glad she can read at that age. I'd also hope that she's either supervised when online...or filters are installed...or better still..BOTH. But, while she may indeed be able to stop and read the text on the 'warning page' of my sites. She won't be seeing any hardcore images to ask questions about
To me...text requires one to actually sit there and read it. Whereas images are immediately IN YOUR FACE....there's no chance to bail out when the surfer realizes it's an adult site...the picture is there. At least with text...the surfer has to make a decision to READ it.
