A touchy subject

In response to "I guess if I was totally honest, I think there are a lot worse things the kid could be doing the viewing dirty pictures." I wrote, "And there are better things parents can do than create situations that cause their kids to lie and sneak."

P.S. I called this "A touchy subject" but I considered calling it "Don't Add Light."

Don't miss it

"If I wasn't paying attention, and if I was afraid of the time Ethan spends at the computer, I would miss all of the creativity and learning happening. Worse still, Ethan might too, because my worry would become his burden."
