I lean more towards the negative side when they are a bit too young as preteen and teenagers.
Now if it's an educational video to help with their decision making and pure knowledge in what Planned Parenting programs can offer, then that's one thing. But not full blown pornography...
Now, I am by far not naive enough to think that my kids would never have sex before 18, or be as sly as possible in trying to get a hold of a porn vid....That's fine, but I'm not going to offer it... They'll have plenty of porn time when they get older, or of course get one passed me.........
Yes, sex is natural and it's natural at a much younger age than most parents would like to admit. The notion that kids don't have sex lives is ludicrous. Most boys are masturbating well before they're eight years old. And when I was a child, pornography was very attractive to me and every other boy I knew. I found plenty and I wasn't damaged.
The idea of protecting children "from sex" is crazy. A responsible parent will teach them about responsible sex as young as possible, encourage them to masturbate and practice safe sex if they choose to go all the way.
