Publish date: 2024-05-06

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In a recent development that has piqued the interest of late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel, a video from 2022 has raised eyebrows and sparked a discussion on modern parenting techniques.

In the resurfaced video from 2022, Rep Mike Johnson from Louisiana shares insights into his distinctive parenting style, which involves closely monitoring his then 17-year-old son's porn-watching habits.

Modern parenting and the intriguing role of 'accountability software'

“They use something called ‘accountability software,’ which tracks the internet activity on your computer, your phone, your iPad, etc. and shares it with your accountability partner,” Kimmel said.

COMPROMISE ALERT: Speaker Mike Johnson uses software Covenant Eyes (learned about at a Promise Keepers retreat) that scans all his electronic devices & gives a weekly report an "accountability partner" his 17 yr old son (so basically don't watch porn or your son/dad will know😬) pic.twitter.com/SSWpB9IIDB

In Johnson's case, the accountability partner happens to be none other than his teenage son. “So if his son looks at porn, his dad gets an alert. And if Mike looks at porn, his son gets an alert,” Kimmel added noting that, “It is possible to be too close with your children.”

An unconventional approach to parenting in the digital age

Expressing his concern for Jack's future well-being, Kimmel made a public offer to the new Speaker, saying, “If you have nobody else in your life to do this with, I will gladly be your porn accountability partner… I’m very open-minded; whatever weird stuff you’re watching—I don’t know, clown porn, cosplay, foot fetish, stuff with the tentacles—no problem, I don’t judge"

What happens between you, Mike, and your Johnson is your business. But let’s get your son out of this, huh?” he concluded.

In the clip, Johnson spoke about the software called Covenant Eyes, which aims to discourage anyone who subscribes to it from looking at porn or questionable images.

He also confidently shared with the attendees at his speech, part of a panel titled 'War on Technology', that his son "had a clean slate" in this regard.

Netizens react to Speaker Mike Johnson's resurfaced video

Internet users wasted no time in offering their opinions. A user tweeted, "Thanks, I needed that laugh - because wading through this stuff is otherwise bleak AF."

While one user said, "The same software that Josh Duggar bypassed easily on his laptop?" another tweeted, "So many creepy vibes."

"His accountability partner is his 17 yr old son? So no “trust” but rather “I’m checking your phone every week.” What life lesson does that teach his kids? This guy just keeps getting weirder and weirder," read a tweet.

"A 30 year old man living with a 17yo comparing porn accounts? Seriously no red flags?" stated another.
