Self-dilution?

School-friendly version of Avenue Q (scroll down), allegedly for ages 9 and up.  The mind boggles.  "Everyone's a Little Bit Mean"?  "The Internet is for Facebook"?  I cannot right now think of a single subplot that I would want to explain to a 9-year-old. H/T Zachary Schrag.

There are also school versions of Rent and Into the Woods. Into the Woods is particularly troubling as it is only the first half of the show--before the deeper and sadder second act.
