How porn is damaging our children's future sex lives

Topic Tags | childhood, pornography, smartphone, threat
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.

Topic Tags | addiction, childhood, pornography, threat
Summary | Children are using new media earlier than ever. The internet is not a playground - violent and sexually explicit material can be easily found online. If children use new media too much, they can become psychologically addicted or get bad posture, become overweight, or get headaches. While there are many benefits of the internet, there are also many dangers. Boys are more drawn toward online games and girls are more at risk to become addicted to communication on social media.

Summary | Scotland's government along with several prominent companies and personalities are trying to raise awareness about educating children about internet safety.

Country | Spain
Topic Tags | childhood, Facebook, research/study, selfie, social media, WhatsApp, youth
Summary | According to a study, seniors (64+) prefer using WhatsApp and Facebook because they can connect with their grandchildren. Also, using new media make them feel young and modern. With social media, seniors feel active and integrated. However, they don't choose social media to have more relationships; most of them already are very social offline. They like WhatsApp a lot because they can create groups (family, friends, etc.) and keep in touch with everyone. They also like the fact they can stay in touch with their grandchildren and share pictures with them. Seniors like to communicate using memes, videos, and images; it is actually more difficult for them to write.
