In today’s podcast: Innocence lost.
We’re talking about the public health crisis that is pornography and the way that it’s affecting our children.
Note – In this podcast I’ll be discussing content that is of a highly sensitive nature.
In the past few weeks I attended a conference about pornography and the way it harms young people. On Tuesday February 9, activist group Collective Shout hosted Australia’s first symposium on the harm that pornography does to children. Experts from all backgrounds agree: pornography is hurting our children.
I’m going to spend some time sharing things that were reinforced at the conference that EVERY parent needs to know about – because the reality is that your children WILL see pornography.
And in today’s podcast, specific tips for every parent for how to deal with pornography in your children’s lives.
