A husband's porn addiction led to a seven-year-old breaking his arm after the father locked himself in a room with his phone instead of supervising the child. The child climbed a forbidden tree, fell when a branch broke, and will wear a cast for six weeks. The husband apologized but resumed viewing porn the next day.
