Remember that pornography is dangerous. It can warp the mind and destroy sexual intimacy in marriage. Stay away from it. A monster is crouched behind that door.

James C. Dobson
About This Quote

One of the most common questions I get asked is, "How can I help my son stop watching porn?" I have found that there are different ways to approach this problem, but one of the simplest ways is to ask your son if he has ever seen or read about pornography. If he says yes, then you should sit down with him and openly talk about it. This is vital because embarrassment can cause a boy to turn away from this problem. The first thing you want to do is have a very open conversation with your son about what he has seen.

If he won't tell you, then you'd likely want to start questioning his friends. Your son may be afraid of what others will think if they found out he was watching porn. Of course, if your son is showing signs of depression or other emotional problems because of the porn, then it would be best for an adult to take over this conversation with him.
