How to Talk to Your Kids About Pornography

For: Parents and Professionals

Description:

It is not a question if your child/children will view pornography, it is a question of when.

 

Schools and families must intentionally filter out inappropriate sexual images so that they are not viewed by children. Nearly 50% of children who see pornography by accident say they can't forget that first image.

 

According to a 2018 study in NZ (Youth and Porn) 25% of kids under age 12 have accessed pornography. The largest group of viewers of internet pornography is children aged 12-17. The biggest problem with our kids seeing pornography isn't that it's about sex, but that it's about unrealistic sex.  

 

Want to learn more about the long-term impacts of pornography viewing?
