Advice, please. my dad is...?

My dad watches porn. I don't know what I should do. I don't know whether to tell my mom or keep quiet. I don't want a strained relationship with my dad but what if he goes to far and cheats on mom or worst! Please, some advice...

    Breathe and relax.

    There is very little chance that your dad will cheat on your mom. He's only watching porn. It's something every guy does no matter who they are with.

    If you're still concerned then I think the only thing you can do is talk to your dad. It may be a bit awkward but you got to let him know what you are thinking. If you still feel worried than maybe you should go to your mom and let her know. There is a good chance she already knows and is fine with it.

    You can look at a menu you just can't order anything.

    WOW! A very sensitive subject.

    First; Does your dad know that U know that he watches porn? If not, let him know that U know, but be subtle about it. Like; "Hey dad what's with the porn? Are you getting so old now that you're forgetting the basic steps? (giggle)" Or something like, "I didn't know older people watched porn. I always thought that's what teenage boys snuck around and did."

    Whatever U do, don't tell your mother. There may be something that is going on between them, or NOT going on between them if U know what I mean, and this is the solution. This is a way for him to get what he needs since mom isn't providing, or maybe it's just something to tie him over until next time. It may also be a filler to help him get in the mood and appreciate what he has at home, versus going out and getting it elsewhere. I'm willing to bet that your mother knows. So don't get too involved.

    Good luck!

    I know it sounds gross and is something you probably wish you never found out but truth is...most guys watch porn. Another scary truth that might be true in your situation is that occasionally your parents might even watch porn together. Watching porn does not mean cheating or that he would even contemplate cheating on your mom. Maybe theyre not as intimate with each other as they used to be but i doubt its any reason to be alarmed. I kno its hard but try to ignore it and dont look at your dad as some crazed cheating baboon

    You should do nothing. Your mom probably already knows. A lot of men and women watch porn. It does not make people cheat. He is a grown man.

    if you know about your dad watching porn, I'm sure your mom knows about it. Just because he watches it, does not mean he will go out there and have an affair.

    Watching porn does not mean that he will cheat on your mom.

    You aren't the parent. You aren't the marriage counselor. It's not your job to manage your parents. Unless there is more to the story and your Dad's porn watching is affecting you personally, you should mind your own business.
