Question
My son has been obsessed with a Japanese manga since junior high school, which contains explicit content and offensive images. Now that he is in high school, his grades have plummeted. As parents, how can we help our child break away from this bad habit and guide him back onto the right path?
Answer
First, understand how deeply your son is immersed in the manga and whether it affects his other interests or academic performance. If your child has a talent for art, consider enrolling him in art classes related to manga, turning his interest into a professional skill. At the same time, have an open conversation with your son to help him develop the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, making him aware of the negative impact of explicit content. High school students are now adults capable of managing their behavior. As parents, our role is to provide support and guidance to help our children make the right choices.
