Non-Spanking Joke:
A single mother in her mid-thirties, obviously rather upset, asked for help from her neighbor, a woman about a decade older who had raised two sons to young adulthood:
"Bobby's only twelve years old," she wailed, "Yet on his computer files I found all these pictures of young women--"
"Relax," the neighbor lady told her, "That's perfectly normal for a boy his age, looking at photos of naked women--my boys started doing it too, when they were about that old."
The younger woman replied, "But the women aren't naked, they're wearing shiny black leather outfits and holding wooden paddles, or straps, or riding crops."
Her next-door friend was surprised. "Wow, that's different. My sons never had that kind of interest, not that I'm aware of."
"I don't know what to do about it, especially since Bobby somehow shut off my parental controls on his computer--I'll have to deal with that disobedience on his part." The young mother implored, "Isn't there any advice you can give me, anything at all?"
The neighbor frowned pensively. "Nothing proactive, I'm afraid, but I can suggest what not to do."
Her distraught friend replied, "That's better than nothing, I suppose. What's your suggestion?"
The older woman replied, "Well, you probably shouldn't spank him..."
