today's youth / adolescents with ubiquitous access to unlimited info, perception of love and sex

I don't suppose this will get any responses since this topic isn't about tasting your own cum or if you like sucking *ock or not haha

So I was an adolescent in the 80's. We didn't have smart phones or internet. lol all I knew about a blowjob was it involved the mouth (blowing I assumed) and wasn't really sex. I remember using my sister's blow dryer to give myself a "blowjob" after hearing about it from a bunch of other grade 7 boys at school. haha

Today's youth have ubiquitous access to nearly unlimited info in their back pockets (cell phone). For those of us raising teenagers, how do you think access to such information / porn or even forums such as this affects their perception of love and sex?

As parents of adolescents / teens, do you talk about this? Do you monitor / restrict their internet? If so, how do you control what they access when they are accessing public internet? Or at a friend's place?

 

I just saw this interesting post. Long story short. No I did not restrict my son from anything. I just explained the facts of life about sex, law, disease, jail, friends, family, LGBTQ, etc. And gave him all the rope he needed if he chose to hang himself. But he did not. He turned out very successful. Not the way I imagined but he is married with 2 kids and comfortable. It was interesting watching him grow into his own self without my needing to mold him into what I wanted him to be. I think many parents make that mistake.

Be this, don't do that, what do you want to be when you grow up, get a plan, be successful, IMO it is all a distraction of actually experiencing the gift we were born with. Teach your kids all the facts of life and cut the tether. And just watch. If they fall, watch them get up. Too many people teach their kids to follow the mistakes they made. My very Catholic parents said I must not date until I graduate college. Bullshit. I was sucking dick at 13.

Sex is fucking normal the more you keep it away the more you want it. You make the urge much stronger. If you restrict porn they will get it somewhere else.
