Agreed with most of the above. Too many people want to pass a law or a regulation so as to have the government or a corporation do the policing that they should be doing themselves. If you are a parent, this is your bloody JOB.
The other problem is, of course, that any rating system inevitably uses the standards of others. These may not be, and probably are not, the standards that yourself or your family would prefer.
Freedom of the press is critical to a free society, and like it or not, a rating system would restrict this freedom, whether directly or indirectly (by making some content less economically viable).
