    OP you did a wonderful thing. by preventing him from buying the mag, you stopped him heading down the slippery path of red line, max power, spoilers, burberry baseball caps, neon running boards modifed citroens and having a bird called jacinta. theres one less boy racer in the world because of you today, and you should feel proud.

    bravo.

    And you can all go on about how society is changing and all that crap but if society jumped off a cliff would you jump off a cliff too ?

    You're right. We should keep such material away from our kids until they are 25 and married. God forbid we should let them see the EVIL naked human form or let them express any EVIL sexual feelings in a healthy way!

    In fairness, if the kid is old enough to have an army tank, let him see the mag FFS. Better that than he goes experimenting with the internet or with real girls ahead of time. It's completely natural.

    Nah I definitely agree 12 is too young for that stuff. I know you can't really stop them in this day and age but still.

    There is no age restriciton on Zoo magazine.
    Simple as that.
    You should have sold him the magazine.
    I remember when i was that age i was refused a can of Club Shandy which had less than 0.5% Alcohol and i was so embarrased.
    The scars still live with me today when i go to order a pint.
    You've just ruined this young fella.
    Hope your happy!!

    Back when I was a whipper-snapper I was refused to buy a can of red bull, if you can believe that. Though it was a new product at the time, and a lot of people didn't understand really what it was.

    I've watched many a group of kids debating if red bull had alcohol in it or not :)

    No, you shouldn't have sold him Zoo, simply cos it's mind numbing shite. You should have given him a copy of Bizarre instead

    I agree that you did the correct thing here, OP.

    The fact is that he will still access these images on the net, except without all the trash that gets printed in those magazines.
    you stopped him heading down the slippery path of red line, max power, spoilers, burberry baseball caps, neon running boards modifed citroens and having a bird called jacinta. theres one less boy racer in the world because of you today, and you should feel proud.
