Should one have to prove they're 18 to view online porn?
#1
As a teenage boy, I can remember going into a Walden Book Store and Northland Mall in Columbus and stealing some peeks at the Playboy magazines, being careful not to get caught by store management, or anyone else.  What we could view in a mainstream bookstore pales in comparison to what children can view on the internet.  For instance, I didn't know that "golden showers" were a thing until the advent of the internet.  

In any event, should we require people to prove their 18 to be able to view porn?  I guess I would respond to such a question by asking this - is it broke?  Is this really necessary?  Would such a regulation actually be effective?  Would we be required to create another government agency to enforce it?  How many web-site owners would we have to prosecute?  What would the penalties be?  Is it really worth it?  

I'm not in favor of requiring such a thing.  In fact, I adamantly oppose it.  How about you?  Would you support such a law?

The kids would figure out a way to circumvent whatever firewall the govt comes up with in about 10 seconds.

I think it should be between the child and the parents and not involve the government at any level.

My parents didn't have the birds and the bees talk with me, we just sat down and watched Debbie Does Dallas.

And yet another piece of the puzzle falls into place.   Big Grin

We don't need any damn internet police.  If ya don't want your kids looking at online porn, then get better control of their devices.  End of story.

No but you should have to pay for it with a credit card, even if itâ€s just $1.00. I wouldnâ€t be too upset to find a 15-16 year old watching it but I donâ€t want my 10-12 year old stumbling across it. They will learn soon enough.

Scarlet, poignant point. Yes, another puzzle piece falls into place.

Porn is psychologically damaging. To relationships, and to ones own sexuality. Should we do what we can to help our kids avoid it? Most certainly.

Minors shouldn't be exposed to porn. It takes a lot of maturity to not be adversely affected by such material. But that's a job for parents not the gummint.

This-take responsibility for the devices you pay for. Back in the day you had to work to get a hold of a Playboy or Penthouse. Actual porn movies werenâ€t even something you thought about.

We can debate the merits of watching porn, regardless of age. I agree it's NOT the purvey of the freaking government.

If you want to see "Big Brother" in action, just look at the British. They're on a never-ending quest to find ways to make criminals out of citizens.

Net Nanny has offered a parental solution for this for many years.
