I think the only thing to do is be the example of what decency is about in your actions and words.

I might have said, or just left alone, "I'm not interest in this, don't want to hear about this."

I recently was in a position to say to a young family member, an adult, "I don't want to hear that again.  Those are not the actions of a lady."  That worked in my situation, not likely in others.

Again, hmmmmmmm

You are right. I should have said "I am not the person to show this to". 
This morning I find myself just heartbroken as I watch people battle about abortion. The world is a cold place for warm hearts. We are at war and can only find what we need in the Lord. But it is hard to want human connection so badly and find it so unsafe!

Situations like you mention it's hard to be prepared for when the content is not what we want to be involved with.

In recent situation I had to say, "Don't say that to me again.  or I'm not interested in this."

These time of situations just prepare us for the next time something happens.

Regarding abortion, hard to listen to all that on radio, TV, internet.  The moral compass for most is off, and they didn't have anyone to show them the way.  So very hard to take in.
Cool
