Hey, they'll find out about porn at some point anyway :) 

I don't actually have an 8 year old kid nor a porn collection (honest!)
but anyway that's what the selective restriction I was talking about is

available only to users XYZ (so ACLs on files I guess) but I think for
the typical home/family setup the default should be shared.
