internet purity
We got another one last night. My heart sank as the sweet mama sobbed out her story. Please, Lord, not another one. Please no. It was, though. Another family crashing into the morass of sexual sin, completely unexpectedly. It's happening all the time these days. Moms and Dads telling us through tears about their son's…
Warning: Adult subject matter, may be disturbing to abuse victims. Adrienne* shook with heavy, harsh sobs. Then her eyes flashed with anger, "I couldn't believe he would do that to me!" She described haltingly how her husband had forced her into a sexual act that she was ashamed to even talk about. Then she began to…
We get messages all the time from parents who've found out their son is watching porn. In every one, the parents express shock. They had no idea, no clue that this was going on in their house, so they just aren't prepared to deal with it. When we talk to them, though, the signs have…
It came up on Facebook again today. What do you do when you find your child has been sexting? It's nauseating to even think about it, isn't it? Awhile back, I was shocked when one of my friends told me she'd found a series of explicit texts on her son's phone, but now we're hearing…

If you wouldn't drop your son or daughter off in New York City or Shanghai to explore on their own, you need some kind of supervision for their internet use. The internet is just like a large city - there are fantastic museums, libraries, and churches, but there are also red light districts, gambling parlors,…
When we were young, a boy had to led astray by an unruly friend or find an ungodly uncle's stash to be tempted by pornography. Not so, now. Now, it's lurking in the sidebars when he checks the football stats and is emailed to him by spammers. Boys don't even have to go looking for…
Fabled career goes up in smoke because a subordinate took a wrong turn Joe Paterno spent 46 years coaching football at Penn State University. Last night, the Board of Trustees told him no, you can't retire in six or eight weeks. You're fired, as of now. And he's not the perpetrator. Joe's problem really stems from…
