Well to have a kid, we need a woman, and to have a woman/gf we need to breakup with porn and masturbation.
I want to have a big family when I am older because I have a big family, and family gatherings for holidays are incredible. We have family basketball games (I am 6 foot 2 and the one of the shortest in the family!), everyone is cool with each other, its really amazing. That being said, if you don't have well behaved (usually meaning well-disciplined) kids, do you really think you are going to have more than 2 or 3? No way. You would go crazy. Furthermore, the Bible says having a big family is a blessing. Psalm 127:4-5King James Version (KJV) 4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. 5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate. I like the idea of a big family that watches out for each other at school or wherever, and also are able to keep each other in check. Siblings competing is a very healthy thing, because they are only helping their siblings improve by competing against them in whatever it may be (sports, music, school). Having a source of competition that also loves you and has your best interests in mind is alone a good enough reason to want a big family. If you are one that shies away from competition, you miss the chance to im
Yeah. Monitoring what kids see is a horrible experience for kids. I would hate if my mother did it. It shows a lack of trust and it is a downright privacy invasion.
If I ever have kids, I'm gonna take an occasional peak in his/her internet habits, but I'm never gonna punish my kid for looking at something bad. I will try to get my kid to trust me and respect me and if it ever comes to that, have a normal conversation about it. My dad made the mistake of establishing a relationship with me that was entirely based on my fear of his reaction toward anything I do. My mother tried, but it had a result of me constantly feeling as if I were a prisoner in a good cop/bad cop type of situation.
I guess a child, after reaching certain age, will watch porn and will fap. He will have sexual urges and they were at their peak during adolescence. So it's unlikely he won't ever 'fap'. Maybe a discussion with the child would make sure the child doesn't veer into darker porn stuff.
@recoome @eadgbe @PasterofMuppets You are all either not understanding what I said or just not reading what I said. Or maybe you are not Christian, so you do not have the same morality as me. I don't care if my kids don't have privacy, I really don't. I want my kids to have a non perverted mind, that's what I will fight for, until they are old enough to fight themselves. When you buy your own house, you can have as much privacy as you want. But by that time, this verse will be in effect, and they will be thanking me for not giving them privacy to do whatever it was that their fallen human nature urged them to do. Proverbs 22:6King James Version (KJV) 6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
I understand and respect adherence to any philosophy, including Christian scripture, but I also believe that no child should be brought up by a parent that respects said philosophy more than the child. Just my two cents, I understand that you may not agree with me.
You can do that without showing lack of trust to your child and making them feel uncomfortable. You just need to talk to them. Also your kids are smart, they'll find a way to elude you anyway. Remember, if you forbid something, suddenly everyone will want to do that. I'm also pretty sure there are christians that will agree with me.
You obviously don't agree with me, or you haven't read the thread, because I have already responded to the idea of making the kid feel uncomfortable. I don't care, in a nutshell. And you're right, they may want to do it if I forbid it. Probably though, you must admit, they will want to do it anyways because they are red-blooded people. Again, it doesn't matter if they want to do it, I am going to make it hard for them to do it. If they end up porn addicts, I'm saying, they will have to be desperately wicked and exceedingly rebellious, it won't "just happen" or be easy for them.
