Parents Exposing Kids On Soft-Porn Web Sites

Why would a pedophile pay for pictures of clothed kids
when there are so many hard-core child porn sites out there?

In all the years I've been on the internet I've never stumbled across even one child porn web site.
I was under the impression that most child porn was insiders sending it via e-mail,
or maybe member only sites with passwords and such.

Am I wrong?

Are there any FReepers out there that have seen one of these "many hard-core child porn sites," themselves,
rather than "hearing about it from a trusted friend, group, news source, etc"?

Am I the only one who wants the Mossad to off these two subhumans so the rest of us Jews don't look so bad?

[libertylover]

This is nothing but child abuse and should be dealt with accordingly.

You can trust a pedophile. Sure you can.

In the early days, they were easy to find. A friend of mine and I used to see who could find the grossest thing on the Internet. I found a site full of autopsy pictures. During the search, he found a child porn site. The links led to other sites. Some of it was pictures of kids playing in parks that the members had taken.

In the old days, USENET had EVERYTHING. Probably still does.

I love the cartoons in Playboy. One of the best ones I have ever seen is as follows...

A lady answers her door to find a delivery man holding a package in a plain brown wrapper. She has a horrified look on her face. Reason is that the delivery truck is emblazened with "Dildo World" and other adult item descriptions. The delivery guy looks at her and says 'whats the problem, its in a plain brown wrapper'.

"We received so many inquiries," she wrote. "It left us dumbfounded."

That's because you're DUMB.

"Sorry, we just don't see girls, clothed, usually in bikinis, as harmful or immoral."

Considering that bikinis leave the children mostly UNCLOTHED means nothing to people who are concerned about the MONEY. The mentality of a parent who would exploit their own child's body for "college money" is the same as those women who "work" their way through college as strippers. The end justifies the means?

How sickening.

I'll never forget the time I had my van door open and was swiftly changing my toddler child's soiled shirt. A grandfatherly-looking man pulled up next to my van at that moment and got out of his car. He saw my child's exposed belly an instant before I pulled a clean shirt on. His eyes widened and he said, "Beautiful!" in this appreciative voice before walking swiftly away. My child was very young, but not too young to understand that this was not a normal thing for a grown man to say or a normal way for someone's eyes to look at a child. This man gave us ALL the creeps. "Why did he say that? I didn't like that!" I hardly knew how to answer. We were outside the library when this happened, but instead of going in as planned, I drove away, knowing that this guy was now inside.

My child had been called beautiful before, but instinctively knew the difference when it was said inappropriately. The thought of exposing their innocent child's image to the lustful eyes of strangers should send a quiver of wary revulsion down a normal parent's spine.

It is a small step from pictures to live "fashion shows", isn't it? Even children's fashion shows at the mall have always concerned me, given the number of non-parent men who usually gather to watch. What next for these precocious young children? And how soon will they begin to experiment sexually, now that they have crossed the barriers of normal modesty by prancing around nearly naked on camera?

I remember reading a story where people had given their credit card numbers to a porn site for age verification and found VOILA! they got billed for monthly memberships. "You f**ed up. You trusted us!"

[GailA]

IF they turned on the TV they've exposed their kids to Soft Porn...even the History channel gets a little bit to "exposed" at times.

[AppyPappy]

No. They were exposing the KIDS on the porn sites.

[wheezer]

A lot of the problem isn't you knowing how to find a kiddie porn web site....it's knowing that the pedophiles know where to find your children online.

Hey parents...keep your kids out of internet chatrooms. Pay attention to their online travels.

[Always Right]

I think we need more understanding towards pedophiles, maybe teach tolerence of child rapists in classrooms. Show these links and teach kids how to practice safe pedophilia when they are adults. That reasoning makes perfect sense these days.

[mattdono]

You are right.

That is why parents need to get savvy with computers and the Internet. They need to set up an ethernet in the house, put NT (Small Business Edition) on the network. Then, they can restrict when the child is able to be on the computer altogether. They can set up setting that automatically "kicks off" the child (identified by their userid/signon) at a certain time. So, they aren't up at all hours, talking to God only knows who. In addition, they can set up very restrictive web preferences (similar to Web Nanny, but more powerful) depending on their child's age.

Unfortunately, most kids know more about this than their parents do.

[mattdono]

Here...let me turn that off for you </sarcasm>

"We get feedback like, 'I was a parent myself, but unfortunately lost my child in a accident, and it is good to see the children just having fun,'" he said.

Sure, parents suffering the incalculable grief associated with the death of a child seek comfort in photos of 11-year-old girls dancing seductively in see-through bras. Makes perfect sense.

[wheezer]

Unfortunately, most kids know more about this than their parents do.

They sure do!

BTW- You make a lot of important and sound suggestions.

[jaq]

I hate this whole thing. It's sick and immoral, but I have a question? Once they pass this law, how do they plan on enforcing it?

[sanchmo]

Parents insist they are hurting no one and are actually improving their kids' lives by fattening their college funds and boosting their self-esteem.

Isaiah 5:20 - Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.
Matthew 18:6 - But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.
