Thank you for the great article. Hopefully it will remind parents how important it is to TALK with our children and really take responsibility for teaching them to be good, decent human beings.

Unfortunately, our children spend more time at school, at work, at athletic events, and with their friends, than they do with us! Our whole popular society is fixiated on sex, sex, sex! The kids are overwhelmed by it.
I remember when my oldest kids were in school, at the start of the sex ed push. Parents were sold the idea that teaching them at school about sex would help them make wise choices, prevent teen pregnancy and STDs. Unfortunately, the opposite has turned out to be true. In the last 35 or 40 years of sex ed and increasing openness about sexual matters, our society has become overwhelmed with sexual material, and people have not been influenced for the better, but for the worse.
Now, with the internet and cell phones, our children are truly at risk.
I'm glad my children are raised, but I fear for my grandchildren! Parents are fighting nearly overwhelming odds today.

Chuck's podcasts are fantastic. I urge everyone to listen. Good article. Indeed parent's need to know what is happening. Monitoring software like our PC Pandora can help take the guess work out of knowing 100% what your child is doing online.

This is ridiculous, pornography doesn't create unhealthy minds, sheltering your children and refusing to have honest discussions with them does. Parents who do these sort of things breed kids who are socially underdeveloped and less able to handle situations that arise later in life. If you just tell your kid that he can't see nudity, then he's not going to develop a healthy sexuality. If you really want to help your children talk to them, don't shelter them. You people advocate a form of abstinence that ignores lessons on safe sex and moderation and leaves kids unprepared for the real world. All you'll end up doing by spying on your kids, is destroy their trust in you and hurt them. Pornography isn't the problem, ignoring human nature is. People have a sexual side to them that is dangerous to repress, you have to walk the line between limitation and excess, but those decisions need to be made on a per child basis. Teach your kids about how to respect the opposite sex, do well in school, and make good decisions. Every single one of you needs to be reeducated in parenting.
