I felt like starting a new post.

What shall we talk about that doesn't already have a post (or ten)?

Can we address the shidduch crisis and how porn is to blame? I'm sure we could link them. 

How about the always fascinating topic of sex? Think that's been done.

So I'm going to tell you all a story.

Once upon a time, there was a little boy who wanted a computer for his bar mitzvah. It was the early days of the internet and people thought it was fine. His parents bought him one. He started searching things on online. He started talking to "friends" online. 

.................................

He lived happily ever after.   

​Well I didn't say it was a true story did I???
I came.
I saw
I conquered.
I failed. 
Too much I.

Another comment, some people still think it's fine.

Sorry, I'm not clear what you mean by the "another" comment?

You wrote "It was the early days of the internet and people thought it was fine". The fact is that sadly there are still many parents out there that don't realize how harmful open internet is. We keep on hearing the cries of children that want to be strong but they are afraid to approach their parents about installing a proper filter.
