“You’ve never had any pre-teen boys without driver’s licenses living in your home and messing with computers, have you?”

Sure

But my point is, you would not believe what teenagers are getting up to - entirely on their own. They produce and distribute stuff among themselves that most people would have a hard time believing. (Before my wife’s job, I most certainly would have lost a bet on the subject.)

If all the outside porn produced on the planet suddenly disappeared, it wouldn’t stop the stuff going on right under our noses.

I would believe it, having had teenagers in the house. That's where the hard parenting comes in. I was in shock after calling a number of other parents to discuss what our pre-teens and teens were up to. Most either dismissed any concerns or actually "supported" their kids doing anything they wanted. We took the risk of making our offspring pariahs by insisting that other parents did not have the right to inflict their values on ours by encouraging them to have sex at the other parents' house. We had to make legal threats to back us up. But it was worth it; and 15 years on, ours are succeeding where theirs are ready for the Betty Ford clinic.
