Online Smut: More Young People Getting an Eyeful
Interesting. Apparently kids and teens are being exposed to more pornography, both willingly and unwillingly, as a result of their online access and activities. The most important part is that we don’t know (yet) what that means. Does it have an immediate, negative or traumatic effect on kids? Do they dismiss it, as the example in the article did? What causes one reaction over another?
It’s not as simple as kid + internet = online prey but it’s also something we, as the adults here still making (most of) the decisions, have to keep in mind and monitor.
