Just wait till you are a parent and have to address this issue. I'd say your mom handled it pretty cool ;)

When I was in 7th grade, my best friend stole some playboy's from his dad, I bought them from him..I had this box full of these toy rods called "Cuerods" I think - anyway, they were little colored blocks, used to teach multiplication I think?; i figured nobody was ever gonna look in there, so i threw them out and put the pornos in there. Sure enough, a few months later, my mom finds them. She wasn't mad at all about the magazines; she was furious though that I had thrown out those blocks :D My parents even knew that Ive been to a few strip clubs - I signed up for free Playboy magazines, the subscription comes to my house :) I tried to get it switched to come up to my dorm, but they didn't do it for some reason..so whenever I see my parents, they bring me my Playboy magazine in the little black bag...

One time, my dad read on the internet about the Playboy issue with the women from the Big 12 in it..yeah that one arrived slightly used :p

No, but one time I was up in my room on the top floor. You usually can't hear people coming up the steps, and I didn't hear my dad make his way up. I heard the last one before he came to the door, and I happened to have a nice pic on my monitor at the time. Just before you walked into my room, I managed to leap from the bed, close the pic, and I swear at that very second he glanced over at the computer. Man that was close.

A few years later I found his penthouse and playbor collection in the garage.

I'm kinda wondering how your mom would know how long it is anyway...

Maybe because while porn won't kill you(well...that might be debatable...) smoking can and will. :)

Funny but true. When I was younger I had some Pics and set them up on my screen saver. This is on my own personal computer so no one ever uses it. I usually turned it off. Well one time i was mad and locked my sister in the basement with my computer. 5 minutes later i get a call from my sister(we had two phone lines), "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS ON THE COMPUTER". I said my friend sent them to me by "accident". She was cooler and older so I think she understood so no trouble with my parents. Other time i think my parents have found stuff but they weren't too mad. My mom said just get it off i don't care how. Used the friend excuse again.

I really dont want to know...







IRT the original topic... no, because i dont look at porn. i dont masturbate, so why would i look at porn.






but explaining the anna kournikova screensaver on my computer was a little hard, though :p

What's wrong with your parents?

Not parents, but I know my sis has found porn on my computer. She doesn't say anything. Actually I think even looked at some of my videos. I downloaded a video from Morpheus, it said it was 2 girls, but turned out, it was gay porn. I can just hope that she didn't see that.

I guess I am a hard a$$. I don't let my kids have door locks and all of the PC's are in one "computer room" and frequently looked at and all websites are logged on my PC. I'm not trying to be mean but I get sick of the "Dad I got another virus and you have to format and reinstall" (not every virus but there has been some good one's). I also have privileges set up in XP. When they get older and want to build thier own PC they can but it will still be with the rest of them.

I'd like to think that I did I very good job of hiding my pr0n, because my parents never asked me about it. :)

I did get the opportunity to make fun of my Mom one day, however, when I caught her watching some Playboy movie on my TV when she came over to visit.

She seemed to be enjoying it, too! She was saying "Woo Hoo! Look at all the naked people! Check out the butt on that guy!" :D

nope, I hide it too well for that.

of course, my mom knows I have/look at pron, but she's never been able to find it/catch me.

I pity your kids, not because of that. Over-protecting them is definately the best way to do it, right. Just tell them to learn how to build their own computer, save up, and then let them do whatever they want.
