What would you do if you caught your 14-year-old kid watching porn?

I’d quietly slide a box of tissues next to them and gently close the door on my way out.

Dad and I are going to sit down with him and talk him to death. Hopefully not shame him about his curiosity and sex.

Nothing. Kids should be allowed to view porn/sexual content if they want to. Kids are sexual beings too. Sexuality is not an 18+ thing. Sexually repressing kids is abuse. They'll resent you for it. Sexuality shouldn't be taboo.

Leave. But I guess some kind of "porn is not a good source of information about people and sex with them" discussion should take place in the near future.

oh, i misread this at first.. i thought it said *a* 14-year-old kid. if it was mine, well, i don't know, maybe i'd warn them of the pitfalls of watching porn, but i woudn't punish them or force them to stop.

I would know that I did something wrong and not the kid. Would talk to him or her about it and ask them not to watch it anymou.
