I think that thread is Olav HaShalom!  (For the record, I didn't take it down).
Just as an alcoholic needs to avoid that first sip, a lust addict needs to avoid that first slip.Slip today? No way! ;)Fall today? No way, Jose'!

I think the idea with harry's son, is that some (many?) of us fell into this in part because we did not have the right hadracha at the right time.
And since we care and are  responsible for the chinuch of our kids, its on our minds....
how can we relay to them the right attitude in a safe way.

This is a point that really hits home. If someone would have told me when I was younger that I don't have to be ashamed to ask for help in this area I don't think I would be here now. If someone would have told me that all boys have raging hormones I might not be here now. If someone would have told me that many good boy fall many times in this area I might not be here now. If someone would have given me practical advice in this area years ago I might not be here now.

I could go on but I think I made my point. Please talk about this with your sons. The Chafizt Chaim was once talking with other Gedolim about pressing communal issues and one of the other Gedoilim said that one can only focus on correcting others after they have reached perfection in that area. The Chafaizt Chaim said that when someone need a drink you bring him clean water but when there is a fire even the dirtiest water is brought as fast as you can get it there. Today we have a fire in Klal Yisroel, he said, so anyone that can help should. My friends today we have a forest fire raging on every street corner, in every home, in every shul. There is no refugee from WiFi, even the the Bais Medresh. We need even the dirtiest water in the world, even the most infected. Please bring the message to who ever will give you the time of day.


Your advice is GOOD.
If discussing specifics is not in the works (what do I say, when, etc)  do let him know that its normal and proper and perhaps even necessary to look for guidance from someone he can relate to.


thanks.

In our forum we have had parties. we have had laughs and fun all around... but I have seen that if someone so much as peeps the word *help me* an army of warriors, really WARRIORS appears within minutes and sometimes seconds. Some soldiers come with nourishment, some with a battle drum and encouragement and some with a joke to help diffuse the tension. Whatever it is they respond like hatzolah and at times the tears well up in my eyes as I recall those special moments we have had.

Therein, I believe, lies the difference between holelus and a group of people using all the means at their disposal to battle an enemy that is bigger and stronger then us when we are alone, but who retreats quickly when we join together.


SO TRUE

I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT THE JOKING/KIDDING/TEASING

IS SELF EFFACING IN AWAY THAT WE CAN LAUGH AT OURSELVES

THIS FORUM REAALY HAS A UNIQUE KOACH

SO AS LONG AS  WE WILL STRUGGLE IN HOE WE RE-ACT TO HARRY'SWIFE

WE WILL HER AND HER HUBBY AND HER SON  ETC. VERY MUCH ALIVE!!
