Until your daughter comes home with a boyfriend with a fucked up sense of what sex is and ruins her day/week/month/year/life.
I'm certainly not pro government tracking anything I do, let alone porn watching, but if I see how my own kids get exposed to it through friends. No matter how much I try to educate them, friends still show them absolute vile stuff...
Well the idea is to raise my kids not to be sexually repressed so they don't latch on to the first thing which shows them the smallest modicum of sexual attention.
They are free to make their own mistakes. Hopefully they learn from them. If they don't then it is what it is. I'm not here to dismantle the western framework of individual liberty for the misguided idea that it will prevent kids from having bad sex.
Fair enough. I'm raising my kids in a similar fashion. I dislike the sexual repression in the west (from which I unconsciously still suffer). But I'm still worried about other boys :)
