My son, Me and Pornography ........

Was on the way for lunch after picking up my Jovial from school yesterday, we love talking a lot while in the car, suddenly with much excitement he said he got something to share with me.

Jovial," Papa, i got my result already, class position No 5, whole form position No 25"
Eugene," Jo, you've done well, remember last term you were No 20 in the class and to be frank i am so proud of you" I extended my left hand to connect with his right hand as a gesture of my "salute" to him.

As we cruised along to our "makan" destination......... i said this to him that i wanted to share with him something too.

Eugene, " Jovial, while i was waiting to pick you up just now at my usual coffee shop, a friend of mine showed papa a porn movie on his hand phone."
Jovial, " Did you watch it papa?"
Eugene," I did for a short while but i stopped it when he said he wanted to "bluetooth" to me"

A pause ensued, then i asked.

Eugene," Jo, next time if your friend or friends show you any pron material, would you tell me about it" another pause,then he continued.
Jovial," Sure i will, papa, don't worry about it".................and i trust that he would

Just for sharing, have a great weekend and God Bless

P/S : If you want to go inside, you got to open the door

  8. Kindly ignore the answer just trying to relate to a real case and very concerned how our kids going to handle the situation. With wisdom or confusion or frustration or distortion of life?. Can forget and leave out the politikus. The children's conception and feelings are most important. Wonder Jovial will ask you on this?
