The only research access on the Internet he has is access to the online Encyclopedia Americana. At 9 years old their brains aren't developed enough to handle it. As for the 11 year old, at 11 years old I myself had a stack of Playboys and Oui under my bed, Oui had full on twat shots and all that. Actually the Playboys were excellent reading material - I learned all about Scientology and cults from reading the Playboy interviews with Ted Patrick AKA Black Lightning, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Patrick It served me very well a few years later in High School as I was to run into many Born Again Christians programmed by their particular churchs so I recognized the mental affliction immediately. And then again a few years later when in my mid 20's through no intent on my part I ended up getting a job with a company that I eventually discovered was a Church of Scientology front. The owners of that company are in jail at the current time, convicted of securities fraud (years after I left that company) And yes, when I was there, they did attempt to get me sucked into the cult of Scientology... Believe me, to this day my parents know as much about cults as they know about the WWII Japanese atrocities against the Chinese, which is to say - about nothing. I think sometime when I was 15 or so my Mom decided to clean out my room and found and tossed out all my porno mags. It was a sad day. :-( This was long after junior high school sex ed class so it saved both of us the embarassment of her finding out I knew more about sex than she did. ;-) You really need to concentrate on laying the firm sense of right and wrong, and forget about worrying about the nekkid pictures he or she may come across. For all my early exposure, I didn't get laid until I was 17. Just because you understand how the plumbing works doesen't mean that you just toss out your sense of right and wrong. > Say they are curious what the word milf means and they search for it... > that would be an eye opener! > > So right now I have a list of words that are blocked from URLS and a > large number of sites blacklisted gathered from other peoples lists > scavenged from google. > Well, there is something to be said for the idea that if you make it taboo you make it more attractive.
