Sorry, but while the parents are central figures, you can't discount the peripheral influences in a child's life. A child can be an angel in front of their parents, but with other children or with others around teaching different values through subconsciously-learned actions, children can act differently no matter what a parent teaches. Therefore, there is an onus on society to help guide children in all aspects of their lives - home, school and in social settings.

"Let the parents deal with it" is an antiquated, responsibility-absolving attitude.

Also - if you ever go to a country like Japan (and I'm not sure you have), I'm sure you would more than understand what I mean.
And thank you for proving mine...?

But no, it's still not Japan. They do hide a lot. Except for panties. And puppy porn. And a general disdain for women.

It's not a black or white issue.

But we can agree, around the world, just stand up and look out.
