Updated/still thinking about next steps

Separating the two - wow, that's really helpful. Really. How would your kids have found out?

My daughter knows - she's 14. She's having her periods, and boys are just around the corning in high school. She needs to know that porn will destroy good relationships. And having a dad with the courage to talk about it with her is how that is going to happen, no other way. She was proud to tell me she got her first period - it was an interesting moment, but I was proud that she felt confident to tell me. There is trust there. My parents never had the courage to talk much about sex, drugs, or porn. My brother and I were pretty straight laced, but still delved into stuff.

My son is 12. The talk will be soon. My daugther is 7 - too early.

I blew the EA open, and the same day I sat down with D14 and S12 with an open Bible, showing how adultery is spoken not only by the prophets, but by Jesus, God himself. And spoken about A LOT. Sex's intimacy is something God gave to us to give us a glimmer of the bond we will have with Him in heaven. It is meant for one man and one woman. I know some on the board will not like to hear that, but that's my belief.

I say this to show you where I'm coming from. You might have a different view, but from your posts, it looks like we have lots that we agree on spiritually.
