How porn is damaging our children's future sex lives

Summary | According to a study, young boys in the UK are first exposed to online pornography at about 11 years old. Consequently, families need to have conversations about sexual behaviour sooner that what they might have thought. Also, because many boys own digital devices and because online pornography exists, it is important to talk to boys about that. There is a risk for boys who are interested in pornography at a young age; such a behaviour can have a negative impact on their sexual sensitivities and future relationships, if they mistake fiction for norms.

«Le mobile est le meilleur ami des Milléniums»

Summary | Céline Cabourg and Boris Manenti answer some questions related to Millennials and their digital world. They say that today, the gap between teenagers and adults is getting more important. For instance, one teenager told Manenti that adults have different Facebook profiles; they only post pictures of their family and their vacation. In sum, they don't use social media the same way as young people. Moreover, teenagers view their smartphone as their best friend and not as a tool. What about "You Porn Generation"? It is true that children as young as 10 can have access to porn. Parents have an important role to play in their relationship with their children, and they should have open discussions with them.

Summary | Scotland's government along with several prominent companies and personalities are trying to raise awareness about educating children about internet safety. Only few parents discuss problems of online safety such as pornography or sexting with their children. Most importantly, youths should be taught about what they can do when they encounter content online that upsets them, that they can approach an adult, various help organizations available, or report inappropriate content.
