[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 268877, member: 6546"] GCV-- I also think that you are fighting a losing battle by trying to convince difficult child 1 not to look at porn. Emphasizing that these women are daughters and sisters and moms is, in my humble opinion, probably not the best way to go. Men compartmentalize anyway--those women are not "real" women....they are fantasies....and one has nothing to do with the other, as far as men are concerned. Perhaps you could let husband guide difficult child 1 through all of this? Guidance from an adult male (assuming that husband is not addicted to porn), is probably exactly what difficult child 1 needs. He needs to learn the correct way to manage his sexual curiosity/fantasies and urges/behaviors in a responsible way. I don't think there's too much chance of Mom being able to model that for him. I would make it clear, though, that there are certain things that Moms don't want to find: porn sites on their computer, XXX videos in the VCR, and (sorry for being gross) "crusty" towels left in the bedroom, etc etc etc. Good luck with all of this!! --DaisyF [/QUOTE]
