Very inappropriate add I noticed. It has nothing to do with Aspergers or Autism, is very un child friendly. I've circled it in red.

Did you follow it?
Unless it links to pornography,
I'm not seeing a problem.

It may not link to pornography, but I doubt many parents will want to have to answer if their kids ask what pornographic addiction is. Well, depending on the age of the kid, but still.

If any problem involving inappropriate ads come up, then PM Alex.

So we should ban discussing real psychological
issues, just because they might cause some
small discomfort? Porn addiction shows up
on the nightly news.

Discuss porn addiction in the Adult Discussion forum. Discuss any inappropriate ads with Alex. Discuss any inappropriate members with the mods. Ghk. I mean WP members who post, not the members of members.

No, not so long as it is in an age-appropriate section.

And on shows like Oprah.

It's a medical condition, for christ's sake.

I do think you're correct. If you had them, they would expect car keys. Good thinking.

I admit to screwing up raising mine. I found the big boobed wonder under the kids mattress, I should have replaced it with the real deal and explained why it wasn't good. Instead he's probably going through life looking for the plastic world. Oh well, he apparently isn't alone. I did and do better raising the grand kids and I get to send them home. Key words, "I" raise, that isn't a "you" raise. Thanks for the offer though.

I don't come here to baby sit other peoples children. I don't understand why you're on a crusade to clean up an already tidy little place on the net, Shadexii. (it's a lie, I do know) Do you know why?

Your boy had a blow up doll?

Wouldn't hiding a real woman
under his bed be illegal?

Not only illegal, but also quite difficult.

Oh, I'm not on a crusade. Far from it. I'm just a bit surprised that there's that kind of ad here.

This isn't the first time that someone has had an issue with one of the ads, and it won't be the last. (I also wouldn't have been aware of the ad had it not been brought up. 8) )

Ultimately the parents are responsible for what their kids see on the net, but with the random ads, it is harder for them to keep tabs on this sort of thing.

He didn't get an allowance large enough to afford one. Actually I'm not sure they even had them then.

He would have had to share. An illegal woman? Oh please explain. :wink:

He might have run into trouble had he tried to keep her between the mattress and the springs. Hell he wouldn't feed his dog unless reminded. I'd have to take her away from him. Don't want any more skeletons in the closet.
