As the single mother of a 15-year-old boy, I have no clue. I don't really want to have a clue, either, but I guess I ought to find out, right?

How much is too much? I assume that a kid who has an active social life, does okay in school, has outside interests, a p/t job, and actually speaks to members of the opposite sex is probably okay, right? No?

Any warning signs?

When you start tripping (literally) over it, there's a problem.

If he isn't a shut in, and he isn't out there getting chicks pregnant and shooting heroin, you're probably doing a good job. :p

Don't stop the porn. It only becomes a problem if he doesnt do other activities cause he is jerking off.

What's his part time job? Is it something under the table, or it it bagging groceries for tips? I couldn't get a regular job till I got my working papers at the minimum age of 16.

To keep it on topic, as long as he's not using his wages, & your my documents folder on the family pc isn't 8gb, then I guess you're in the clear.

Does he have any male role-models in his life? He needs to learn the proper way to treat women.

Too much? I don't think you can have a quantitive answer to that, but more a qualitative one. I think the best guage would be similar to fetishes... can he get arouse without the porn? and aside from the horror of you knowing, does it have any negative impact on his life itself. If not, then it's probably fine.

Although porn itself may have negative effects, especially to those who are inexperienced. They might believe sex is like how it is in his flicks. ie, that all men should have 12" penises. That women like having their faces spewed. etc.

Well, he really isn't hurting himself and/or anyone else. I wouldn't care...
