Parents, would you care if your child entered the porn industry at 18?

Would you care, or would you say since he/she is 18, they can do whatever they want and you could care less about what happens to them?Parents, would you care if your child entered the porn industry at 18?
No, I wouldn't. If they are 18, they are an adult, and they're free to do whatever they want. I personally believe that parents are far too nosy in the affairs of their child.Parents, would you care if your child entered the porn industry at 18?
I would say that each situation is different. Why does the 18 yr old want to be in porn? Do they know the negativity in that environment? Support them in their decision if it is for a good reason. Explain that if the environment becomes dangerous, then they need to get out of it immediately.


Unfortunately, sex sells these days and younger people are growing up way too quickly. They seem to be ';blessed'; with the right parts at an earlier age too.


Even if you are just a friend to this 18 year old, you should suggest getting as much research information on the company they will work for and past projects......I don't know much about the porn industry, however a business is business and some just don't know what exactly they are getting into until it is too late.......
I would care so much that it would send me to prison.


1st for kicking the crap out of my kid


2nd for kicking the crap out of any porn ';actor/actress'; that touched my kid


3rd for killing the producer


4th for killing the director


and finally


5th for burning down the building it was being filmed in


So, yeah, I'd say I would care.
I would care and most likely I would feel hurt or as if I did something wrong.





BUT....and I know this is a huge BUT.....If she really enjoyed it and she didn't feel like an object or manipulated and it was through a reputable industry then I really couldn't do much to stop her, although I would discourage her from doing it I would never stop her (of course when she's of age) from doing something she wanted to do.





Now, if she was doing it just for the money, or was doing it and feeling badly about herself and having a low self worth complex then yes, I would try as hard as I could (legally) to stop her from doing it. I would talk to her offer my help to find other income and such, but hopefully the way I raise my daughter I won't have to worry about that, but things happen and if so, I'll just try to keep being a good mom to her and be there to listen.
hell yeah.. i'd be proud i raised a stud! JUST KIDDING!! that would be horrible and i definitely would do everything i could to persuade them to do otherwise with their life... all the diseases, not to mention, just being a horribly degrading and DANGEROUS lifestyle... i'd hope that i instilled better values in my children then to see them selling themselves in sexual ways for a couple bucks when they turn 18....
I would most definitely care. Someone who didn't care that there child was entering into a world of being degraded, looked at as a sex object, and knowing that tons of males (sometimes females) would be masturbating while watching a child of theirs perform ridiculous acts with a bunch of people they are not seriously involved with... isn't really a good parent.
YES I would care. I would care if they were 18,28 or 58!


I don't at all mean I wouldn't still love them. I simply mean that I would be disappointed in them for choosing to sell themselves short like that. I would also be pretty disappointed in myself for not having a better influence on them as they were growing up.
If I didn’t care and didn’t freak out, I’d say I’m not a very good mother.





Sure, they’re 18 yrs of age and are a legal adult and are able to make decisions of their own. HOWEVER, as a parent, regardless of age, it’s our job to protect our children. And even if they are an adult, they’re still our children.





I’d probably advise my child of all the dangers, explain why I’m so concerned, but in the end…my child would still be free to do as they please. Simply because I cannot control their every move nor can I stop them from making mistakes. I just pray they learn as they get through life that things aren’t always what they seem.
I would definetely care. It would really hurt me. I would probably be furious. I try to teach my daughter about self-respect and for her to enter the porn industry, those girls/women have no self respect. Selling yourself is not self respect. I hope I raise a young woman who respects herself and her body.
Depends on what they did in the porn industry. I'm assuming you mean if they were the actors actually having sex. I wouldn't like it if my kids did that. However, there are lots of other jobs... cameraman, director, etc etc etc. I wouldn't object to those (although they're not on the top of the list of jobs I'd want my kid to have... but neither are flipping burgers at McDonalds and the like).
of course... they'd better know better than to be doing things like that while i'm still breathing.. hopefully as a parent i can at least influence them not to... but it's really their choice when at age..there's really nothing i can do but be against it.. you know.. but of course i'd be mad... it's disgusting and degrading...
If my child turned 18 and entered the porn industry, of course I would care. No matter what the age is, he is still my child and I would love and care about him always. I would be disappointed for not raising them the right way and teaching him to keep away from that kind of stuff.
I would say to my child if that is what pleases her then join but remember if you get a Aids, HIV or any kind of infection don't say i didn't warn you cuz i didn't and i would still call every once in a while to check.
I don't think many parents out there could care less about what their kids are doing. I'm 28 and my parents call me to make sure I took my vitamins and flossed.





I would be so upset if my daughter chose to work in the porn industry.
pal, if your mom and/or dad truly loves yous they would tells you NO! i do not thinks its appropriates to go into the ';porn industry'; or ';dirty nasty gross'; as i likes to call it.. but you might as well get used to answering to ';whore';
I'd be absolutely devastated wondering what I did for them to want to do this for a living. 9 times out of 10 it has something to with the way they were raised
Of course I would care but by Law, I wouldn't have the authority to prevent it and therefore, I wouldn't love my child any less.
I care. And I would not want that. Whether they are 18 or 88, they are still my child and I will always want the best (not that) for them.
I'd care. I'd freak out. I'd probably go into a deep depression.
I would be so pissed off it would not even be funny. Not that I could stop her but boy oh boy would I be dissapointed that she wanted to use her body instead of her brains.
I would care, voice my opinion but ultimately it's their choice and I'll support them in whatever they choose
I would be totally freaked out that I didn't raise them the right way. They are your child for goodness sakes. Your heart and soul!
Yes i would care. I believe porn degrades women.
YES I would care.
Oh coarse I would care!. Don't tell them hun it will break their hearts.
yeah!
i would not want that life for my children and i would let them know
I would be pissed.





I don care how old my kid is i care what theyre doing at any age even if theyre 50.
my children have the right to do whatever makes them happy at that age
hellz ya, id care if my kid was 40 %26amp; entered the porn industry!
