From my perspective, this is born out of NGO's and political elite. This is not an ask from or concern of the general population.

1. "Parents of children", unfortunately, have little political clout (also when including their votes).

2. Children are not "fucked up" by seeing people having sex. I mean, ok, parents can be worried about them being "fucked up", but this is to a great extent the same engineering-of-consciousness that the TF article is discussing, and which the UK government wishes to affect.
