Alexandra, I don't think so.  We had PBS, Mr. Rogers, Big Bird and many shows that were well vetted for children.  Not so for the I Pad.  Kids get all sorts of content.  Some Good and some extremely bad.  The iPad nanny is very different than violent cartoons or Mr. Rogers.   This is a problem well out of control because, we could always change the content for out kids, so many parents know so much less about the I pad than do there children.  One young 9 yr. old child that I know was able to re-rout his house hold router to suit his own purposes when his parents attempted to sensor some of his content.  The parents then had to call in a professional to get things straitened out.  He and his friends had a whole list of clandestine movies even some on the official legal black list.  This is extreme but it is far too common that kids are addicted to iPods, games and overwhelming content on you tube and netflix. Bullying is a serious problem some internet sites encourage it.
