Look, you're probably a good person but you haven't taken the time to fill out your profile, so..., we'll never know!

It's usually not a good idea to deal with personal issues on the internet but..., what do I know?

Having said all of that, in order for me to provide you with adequate advice, could you please send me those pictures and videos ASAP? I mean, is this chick pretty or ugly? Is she just parading around in the nude or is she going to town on something? Is it low resolution, low quality or professional level porn?

Your son will probably grow up to be a red blooded American guy. I myself started reading Playboy when I was 12 and look how I turned out ;)

So..., how soon can you send that stuff over?

Porn is gonna happen. Maybe a few years back you could try to hide it, but with internet around, there's really no point in pretending it's not there.

What harm is porn anyways? He'll just grow up to be a pervert, at worst.

Whether he gets it from his father or he gets it on his own, porn is a natural part of one's sexual development. You will actually do more damage by confronting him about the porn or deleting the pictures. If you delete the pictures, he will know it wasn't him who deleted the pictures. He'll get all self-conscious about it, like he's the only boy in the world who's ever looked at porn. It's the one's who get all self-concious about it that have more problem. Just let it ride. Too young? As any good pilot will tell you, "if it will taxi, it will fly."

Nothing. He may have more respect for his dad after seeing it. It was also probably more tame than what he could see on Cable or Satellite these days.
