When discussing the issue, the association said that the assessment on whether certain media content was appropriate for children should be made by parents and not by the media regulator.

Council Chairwoman Sonya Momchilova said they had no intention of becoming a censor, but said that some media were imposing behavioral patterns among children that she did not approve of.
