to think that just because something is on TV in the afternoon doesn't make it automatically suitable for children?

I popped round to see a friend and she was watching Law and Order SVU. Her ds (8) was home sick from school. I said (as I'd seen that one before) that there was a bit coming up she wouldn't want him to see. She said that he often watches them with her in the afternoon and "it must be ok as it's before the watershed".

I said that the watershed didn't really apply to satellite channels. I left it after that as not my business.

But it's not really suitable is it?

As I left he called through when we were at the front door and asked her what 'oral sodomy' was.

and what was her reply?

She laughed and returned to the room as I was putting my scarf on so I don't know.

that's so funny laugh or oh dear god let the floor open up and swallow me laugh?

oral + sodomy = dragonbutter?

Surely oral sodmy's impossible isn't it? Unless someone eats anally?

I'm baffled...

ahy, maybe victim of oral sodomy had that reverse peristalsis thing going on?

it's a term American cops use on SVU meaning forced oral sex.

Laugh as in tinkly and effervescent, didn't seem embarassed. But if he has been watching it all week he would have seen and heard a lot of sexually violent terms.

I think I've seen every SVU episode and I think they're really more aimed at 15's and over.

Oral or aural? Only it could mean having a jolly singalong while having bottom sex.

Your friend seems a bit dim to me.

ever watched Alan Titchmarsh on itv I put it on once and him and Julie Peasgood had sex toys on it.

YANBU. Though I doubt it matters that much. I unwittingly let DS watch Flashforward the other afternoon (it was on series record and so it overruled cbeebies while I was out of the room). It was a repeat of the halloween episode, he loved describing the men in scary masks etc etc. I was horrified - he did assume me it was ok 'as its all pretend' and now he wants to watch it again. Doh. New years resolution: learn how the TV works!

YANBU I made the mistake of watching time team now all my daughter (5) talks about is peoples bones sticking out. I only have childrens programmes on in the day now its easier to wait until they are in bed!

TBH I don't think much of loose women being on during the day, I'll never forget dh turning it on when he was off sick and there they all were will a dildo each........it was turned straight over to another channel!
