Are there any examples of 'for the kids' legislation that isn't just something like backdoor encryption masquerading as protecting the young?
I think you mean "encryption with backdoors"
Uhh, yes, in fact I'd say most. There's entire systems of childhood health legislation, education, labor, you name it. This is an availability bias showing through. Think about it for five minutes and I bet you can come up with a dozen examples.
