All I will say is that if anyone would have pulled me aside and told me how fucked up your mind gets when you are watching the shit, it would have spared me of a pretty dark period of my life.... total addiction, depression, suicidal thoughts..... almost ruined my engagement. I'd say its got to be one of the hardest addictions to kick. My father was amazing, but he was born in the 50's, he couldn't possibly know what an abysmal hole internet porn is. And I hit puberty right when it all became mainstream. No bueno.
Gotta have the tough and honest conversations with your kids. It will make all the difference.
