It’s not power.

Have you ever raised a 17 year-old boy?

WuWei · 2023-11-07T23:52:58.157Z

Does it mean “do as I say not as I do”?

Being a role model doesn’t mean ‘be a parent to me and police my actions.’

That’s what I’ve been saying.

There is nothing in being a role model to a kid that makes the kid a parent or a policeman.

Your insistence on suggesting that it does is abjectly stupid. I have come to expect nothing less from you.

To a porn-watching father, it very well might.

STODR:

This is a new round of attacks. Can’t call him a racists because of his adopted son, can’t call him a rich white dude. So attack his religion and accuse him of being a perv…

I think having your son monitor your devices to see if you are watching porn is weird.

I wouldn’t think this is such an outrageous opinion.

It’s not about the dad’s consumption, it’s about the kid. He’s approaching it as a team, rather than top down, and I think that’s a good idea.

The Trouble with Boys and Men

Because the only way to learn to be a man is to “man”.

Here you go.

In this set up, what’s the id do if he finds porn on his dad’s phone?

Demonstrate to his son how biblical grace, repentance, confession and prayer work.
“James 5:16 KJV — Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.”

You’re missing the point. It’s not about the porn. It’s about the power.

So neo-marxist of you.

It’s just weird to do with porn. That is all.

They see your point, they just want to trash him.

It’s not “weird” to do with anything. Not being a hypocrite is never “weird.”

Would it be weird if it was a breathalyzer before driving? Son blows and father blows.

How about texting and driving?

Do you hit your girlfriend? Have you ever hit mom?

WuWei · 2023-11-08T13:40:41.748Z

Of course they do. Remember the Pence rule?

Is a father a hypocrite if he drinks beer but tells his 17 year old son he can’t drink it?

None of that is porn.

It would be equally weird to have my son be my accountability buddy for masturbation. It’s the sexual aspect.

STODR · 2023-11-08T14:28:10.806Z

Only if he says never drink, but drinks himself. Telling him he can’t drink until legal age then no. Is that even controversial?

I think the Father should set the example of not drinking if he expects the son not to become a drinker as well.

I don’t drink at all and neither do any of my children (adults).

No, but how is that different from porn? Legal for adults to view but not legal for kids to view.

People finding it weird likely would be unable to lead by example in this area. Some have essentially admitted it.

who said it was different? He showing his kid he is not a hypocrite.
