parental naivety

It is a denial and ignorance of disgusting or dangerous acts committed by their, usually teen, children.
Friend one: OMG, so my boyfriend and I were hooking up in the kitchen, when we thought no one was home, and my mother walked in right as he picked me up and put me on the counter! She didn't even notice!
Friend two: Gotta love parental naivety!!

naïvetéser

noun: naïveté about how seriously pin-headed Taser-wielding cops & airport security take themselves
Robert Dziekanski {RIP}, that Polish immigrant who was fatally Tasered by cops at the Airport, must have been experiencing profound naïvetéser – ‘cause the cops all testified, "The fact that Dziekanski couldn't understand English made no deference." Dziekanski, they said, seemed to be in an agitated state; therefore, the use of multiple Tasers - repeatedly - was an appropriate response.
