I am human. Like all humans, I do not remember my birth.

I think a huge amount of it is because of the Internet. Every single thing in the world is accessible with a few clicks. Almost every child, by the age of 13, has seen pornography.

Today, it's a joke. David Schwimmer

If your children object to being tied, threaten to take them to see Santa Claus; that ought to shut them up. Dave Barry
