That woman is a total moron and the damage she did to her relationship to her son is huge ...

o.k., how does the mom know her son was watching porn? The daughter turned on the t.v. & that's what was on? What time did she turn the t.v. on? I've fallen asleep watching a regular movie on cable and awoke to a soft porn movie being on. So, unless it was a videotape or he admitted to intentionally turning it on, I'd give the kid the benefit of the doubt.

Definitely a pea... I'm always shocked at how often so many peas call the police or give advice for another to do so.

i think a boy would be less embarrassed hearing it from a male. Just like a female doesnt want tampon instructions from dad.
in this case, this mom is a psycho

Proof positive that we do not pay police officers near enough.

"She stated that when she entered the residence, her 15-year-old son was in his bedroom," reads the police report. "[Her] daughter turned on the TV and porn was on." What about this perspective. How did the mother know it was the son? Did she see him watching the porn. Maybe it was her husband or some other person in her life. Psycho.... You know, if it was a Cinemax channel, you very well could be watching Pitch Perfect one minute and if you fall asleep you can wake up and it's full on porn making you look like a freaking perv. BTDT.

Given that she's a parent of the 15 y.o. & 2 y.o. minors, isn't she (& other parents/guardians, as applicable) responsible for not having proper controls that supposedly exposed both children to porn? She reported her son was in his bedroom & the television was not on at the time of her arrival. What other people may have had access to the television - family? friends? neighbors? - since she last witnessed non-pornographic programming in her home? I wonder what other recent problems she cited in her "voluntary statement" concerning the teen - perhaps being disrespectful, sleeping in, playing video games, listening to music, snacking, leaving the toilet seat up, etc.? I wonder if this call will warrant a home visit from DSS to ensure a fit home for both minors. It makes me wonder if the teen's parents live apart & this is her attempt to send him to live with his dad. At the least, this realtor should issue an apologize to the sheriff department & fellow residents for wasting community resources due to her lack of parenting!

Gosh, I don't mean to be contrary, but as the single mother of two boys, I have to take issue with the idea that only a man can have this discussion with their teen boys. I have teen boys, and I don't think that I should abdicate my responsibility to anyone else just because they are of the same sex. Are you saying that there were not conversations growing up as a teenager you felt more comfortable having with your mom/other females then with your dad or other males?

What a thread to become a throbbing member on.

I feel bad for her son. Her first response was to call the police rather then discussing it with him. Poor decision making on her part.

Are you saying that there were not conversations growing up as a teenager you felt more comfortable having with your mom/other females then with your dad or other males? I am going to try to answer this in the best way I know how... First off, I should say my father and I were estranged, so he was not the one that I would have turned to. But I was incredibly close to my grandfather, who took on the role of "male role model" in my life. I did have discussions with him about sex, respect, love, and a myriad of other topics. He (my grandfather) raised three girls and he wasn't embarrassed by what is considered traditional female topics. In fact, and at the risk of sharing to much, I was visiting with my grandparents when I had my first period. He was the one who got up in the middle of night to go to the store for feminine hygiene products for me. So I think the best way to answer is that I had such open, approachable and non-judgmental people in my life I could easily go to any and all of them (mom, aunts, uncles, grandparents) with any questions and would have gotten answers without feeling appreciably uncomfortable from one to the other. This is the same relationship I have with my boys-and I would say that, at least to this point-they have not shown a disinclination to ask questions just because I am female vs. male. (And, again, probably TMI-but this includes such topics of masturbation, sex, drugs, alcohol...)
