I find it rather absurd, that a parent should sue a website for its content. After all, how many other sites out there are there with similar, if not worse, content. Personally the first I would push the responsibility to would be those in direct contact with the child, i.e. the school/education system. But whatever, really.
There are so many absurd things in life... Specially regarding conservative US views about content protection for children (I know, I don't live there, but from what I gathered in my whole online experience, things aren't pretty for the liberal side). And you have to remember that the general public that knows that anime exists sees it under a general stigma, "Oh noes! It's children porn!". So I find it very likely that a couple of over-conservative parents would want to sue a site like AS after finding his/her child surfing through NSFW images. In my family, I know my mom or my dad would've just scolded me, or maybe only talked to me for a bit, but not all families are alike.
