"I am very upset to find out that my 15-year-old son has been able to access and download pornographic images from 'Morpheus,' an Internet peer-to-peer site similar to Napster. I thought he was just downloading music!" wrote a mom named Candy from Kansas on the Web site NetFamilyNews.
Karen Thomas (writer of this crap) rubs me the wrong way.....she sounds like a fuckin momo smuck who doesn't have a clue.....bah just IMHO....so don't go flaming over it.
Anyway I'm wondering what yall think. In the serious as well as comedic realm.....

Hey, nice article, btw what the hell is she thinking? Does she think her son, 15, uses a file sharing program and only downloads music. That's kind of sad, who would have figured she would have thought any different? THE KID IS FIFTEEN!!! Of course he is going to have at least ONE porn file!! LMFAO!! IT's not like he is an angel!! Although if he was, angels can have fun too!! =D
u'd think USAToday would do a better job screening articles?
No shit, you can't be serious, porn on the Internet? Who would have thought? :mellow
and 15? please mom, a boy at that age can usually get more then he can
see anyway! Wut the hell is wrong w/ legal porn?..It's art as well as a form of expression.
:playboy
I did an even worst thing when I was a teenager! I HAD SEX!!!!! (please forgive me! PLEASE)
I know that I downloaded some songs on Kazaa and some porn videos came in with them. Sick!
Let me get this right, its okay for kid to steal music (technically that is the case) but not okay to look at porn?
That is bit hypocritical if want to get moral about it. Also historically teenagers (boys in particular) are very adept that finding this stuff so its not a plague that showed up with filesharing. In my day there was no p2p and we find our share of porn usually in closet where the adults hid thier secret stash, lol.
The problem with raising kids is that you need to do active parenting. TV, internet, chatrooms, radio and finally the state will not parent kids for you. If you as parent you are too busy to notice what you kids are watching on TV, who are they talking to in chatroom, where they go on the internet and what they are downloading, its a reflection your failure not society's. Tech is not to be considered the future's babysitter so it has to be modified to child safe. It's parent job to keep their child safe, and if you are not capable of it do everyone a favor and use a condom.

Since its inception almost 30 years ago, the internet has been transformed from a primitive device for sharing thoughts and ideas, into a massive network where people pay to connect and read advertisements they don't want, while calling each other "asshats".
Parents are so clueless - reminds me of the Harry Potter Nimbus 2000 broom:
"When my 12 year old daughter asked for this for her birthday, I kind of wondered if she was too old for it, but she seems to LOVE it. Her friends love it too! They play for hours in her bedroom with this great toy. They really seem to like the special effects it offers (the sound effects and vibrating). My oldest daughter (17) really likes it too! I recommend this for all children."
Really people.. porno is not all that bad. It's nothing more normal than a kid that wants to look at porn. Stop refering to porn like it's made by aliens for aliens! You americans are really weird! (I'm not talking about the weird porno stuff but just two people having sex.)
lmao come on its the year 2002 a 15 year old has the right to see some pussy is he wants too.

I constantly get duped by these evil file-sharing perverts.
Why, just the other day, I downloaded this one called "Toe-sucking incestuous momma-whores want it NOW" and when I was done I was shocked to see it was porn. I was also shocked the second and third times. This has got to stop!
Boys should be raised by their fathers, imho. I mean, what kind of role model tells their kid that sex is bad? Jeez, where'd the little critter come from?
and now I insert the... oh yeah, just not even going there. :fire

@SnakeAnarchy
That's right! But not only 15 year olds but us too! LOL
I just meant that I don't have to see pictures of it shoved in my face whenever i look at my computer or download what I think is an innocent file. Of course it's healthy and normal, but I don't need to see the real sick stuff, if you know what I mean.
omg, am i the only one that caught that???Originally posted by collideous
