the new landscape
““Pornography has changed the landscape of adolescence beyond recognition””
This is the ‘porn in their pocket’ generation; porn has never been more accessible, affordable, anonymous or addictive.
The development of broadband and smartphone technology were game changers, forming the first generation with anytime, anywhere, unregulated adult content. This technological shift has had a significant impact on our children and young people.
94% of 1000 UK teenagers surveyed had seen porn by the age of 14*
80% of teens say porn is “too easy” to access or stumble upon online*
75% of parents never discuss internet porn with their teens*
Lets see those stats change. We would love to see 100% of parents not only having these important discussions but feeling confident, informed and equipped for them.
