You're looking for an important holiday picture on your family's computer and while burrowing through the C drive you find TONS of illegal porn. Your fourteen year old son uses the computer most often and last week was caught downloading legal porn, lied about it, and is now being punished. The illegal porn files are dated to indicate that they

See, I have no issue with porn, but if you're looking at illegal stuff, you're an idiot and I don't want to be with you . . .

I wouldn't even know where to start. I wouldn't believe that I had married a man who used his own son to essentially get out of trouble.

Counseling, for sure. I don't know what after that. Depends on where counseling leads. I don't know how he could make that up to our son, either.

I completely agree with this.

Tell him he's an idiot - if a 14 year old is sensible enough to get legal porn, he should be bright enough to do the same.

If it was underage stuff no talking, except to the police and a divorce lawyer.

What do you mean by "illegal porn"? Like, illegally obtained by filesharing or child porn/bestiality/etc?

Good point . . . I was thinking illegal as in child porn, not illegally downloaded. I wouldn't care as much if it were illegally downloaded (so my kid wouldn't have been punished in the first place), but I don't think the mama bear in me could ever forgive someone who let his kid get punished to save his own ass.

The porn itself is illegal. It is not illegally downloaded porn.
