Thank you. I think back to my own childhood and can’t recall my parents having to have “the talk” with me, They didn’t have to as their conduct did the teaching and their lessons were quite clear.
Sex was a normal and good thing but like fire had to be treated with respect and had rules governing it’s use for our own good.
Sounds simple but that lesson kept me from a lot of grief.

Being a good role model is more important than anything we can possibly say, imho. All the words in the world can't undo years of bad behaviour, and children who do not see love from and between their parents will have difficulty committing themselves to another in marriage.

Imho, men who delve into pornography do so because they are unable to find this closeness to or love for women. The source of this conflict can be found in childhood.
