12-Year-Old Gets Maxim Mag, Mom Not Happy

Why should she be mad?---The little dude is gonna have to learn what drinks to order someday,and what 12 year is not in need of a mafia lawyer at some point?
This does happen a lot in the magazine industry. At least they weren't total pricks--they could have given him "Knitting Monthly" or something like that.
I fail to see the big deal. 12 years old is the time kids start hiding Playboys in their bedroom, and putting up posters of women they think are hot. It's not as overt as it will get in a couple of years, but the beginnings of things. Parents should be used to it.
Frankly Maxim is a lot better than a lot of other stuff he could be reading, and truthfully I see no real reason to discourage it.
It sounds to me like a mother in denial, wanting to avoid realizing her little baby is growing up. The very fact that she's shocked, is probably a sign that she's a bigger problem than the magazines. Jeebus, I can't even imagine when it's going to be like when has to clean her kid's sheets before too long, she'll probably need a therapist.

I'd love to have to hit it to get it working.Casual Shinji said:

Edit: Anyways, people have said, he's twelve. He's going to want to see the stuff in maxim soon. He's old enough. Obviously, his mother is far too over protective. Not because she took it. Because she raised this kid not to like women in bras. Why would he want games more than nudity? Is he gay? How did she raise him to go against instinct and not keep it? If I were this kid, I'd keep them. And my mom would be happy I got the mail everyday. Ya know, in case it came.
