Parenting Tip # 224
Helping your child to avoid the pornography trap is crucial in a world where the media inundates us with sex and sexual images. Some people are as prone to a compulsive need for pornography as others are to alcohol and drugs. Talk with your child about the dangers of pornography. Help him to make wise entertainment choices, and help him decide in advance how he will handle being confronted with pornography. You can role play various types of situations and discuss how he can respond. For instance, you might discuss what he can do if he finds a pornographic magazine in the trash at a neighbor?s house.Parenting Today's Adolescent: Helping Your Child Avoid the Traps of the Preteen and Teen Years
