I really feel sorry for you. You need help.

I did not say one thing in my previous two posts which required such a retort.
Oh, please, you have been a bitch to me on here since I joined. Don't act all holier... I don't even have the time, the energy, or the desire to go back and post insulting quotes by you toward me.

Bottom line is this lady... you are just another person with another set of ideas no better than mine. Your parenting skills have not even been put to the test yet. Good luck, I wish you the best, but given some fairly neutral PM's by other parents on here, who wish not to post for one reason or another, you have not seen anything yet and should not judge those of us who have had different experiences than you have had.

Well thanks for making my point, bitch.

Go back and re-read your very first posts to me. You are a welcoming committee like the barb from a stingray to the chest. Well done..

OK, I've just had to come back to this thread and ask a question.

Was that stingray reference supposed to upset me? I'm figuring the answer is yes since you were in a bit of a lather at the time.

What I'm really wondering is why you would say something like that.

It's always interested me how much American's have embraced Steve Irwin and his antics.

Perhaps your understanding of culture could do with a once over.

You missed your target with that one.

Naw... I actually loved Steve Irwin. He will be greatly missed. I just thought it was something you could easily relate to since you can seem to relate to anything else I have said to you before.

Is it ok for your teen to look at porn on your computer? and in the case of IB, gay porn. ????

Why wouldn't it be? What will happen to them if they do? Or is it just BAD, no rationale required? Do share your wisdom. What will it do to them? Will it turm them into rapists or -worse still- make them gay?

I think when I have kids, when they get to be 13-14 I'll talk to them about porn -- not to say that they can't ever look at it, just that lots of people do but it has problems, some of the performers are exploited, and that it's REALLY REALLY not representative of real life. I think it's fine for them to look, as long as the first time my son sees a real-live vagina he won't be grossed out because it doesn't look like something he saw on fleshbot, and my daughter doesn't confuse actual gay people with yaoi characters.

I really think that my parents went about it wrong -- when they talked to my brother about porn, it was like "are you looking at this disgusting stuff?" Which sort of gets a reaction of "whoa, you'd really be happier not knowing, wouldn't you?" I don't want my kids to feel like they have to hide and lie to me. I'd rather that they understand that if they see something online that disturbs them, like child porn or pro-ana sites, that they'll be able to talk to me about it and understand that that's not what most people see as healthy.

All disclaimers apply, I do not have kids and am not planning to for at least four years, I don't even have a dog, etc.

Please can I coat it with superglue then light it while he's still holding it? What a troll. No wonder he has to exert such excessive parental control -his short-tempered paranoid name-calling aggression must have his kids hiding everything from him for fear of reprisals.

Is looking at porn (gay, straight, whatever) online different from the days of yore, when kids looked at porn magazines?
