Today, we’re talking about something really important and long overdue — What They Don’t Tell You About... Talking To Your Kids About P0rn. We’re joined by leading child psychologist Aisling O'Connor, who’s here to help parents protect their children from online dangers — including exposure to pornography, predators in gaming apps, and the reality of growing up in a digital world.

This episode covers:
  • The shocking age most children first see graphic online images (it’s much younger than you think)
  • How porn affects children’s brains, self-image, and expectations
  • Why Roblox, Fortnite, and even YouTube Kids aren’t as safe as you might think
  • What works (and what doesn’t) when it comes to parental controls
  • The one thing that protects kids more than anything else online
There are also some practical tools — like how to spot hidden apps, creating a family safety contract, and how to start conversations without shame or fear.
