Hi, That's true, and I think it is important to remember the difference in how we raise our children in the United States. Japan is mostly a Zen Buddhist country with a completely different cultural and moral foundation than us. Here in the United States we have the Christian right which continues to influence the government and public opinion by trying to get us all to live under biblical law and by Christian principles. As a result the Christian right tends to go after games, movies, music, same sex mariages, whatever that they feel doesn't jive with their religious beliefs. I think they often forget not all of us exactly share their point of view, and we have as much right to choose content we like as they do.
