In our crazy digital world, we know it's not a matter of IF our kids will see porn—it's a matter of WHEN. But what then? After exposure, will they go back? How do we know if they are struggling with an addiction?
As parents, we just want to keep our kids safe. That's the goal. But in order to protect our kids from the harms of pornography, we need to understand what we're dealing with. For instance, what's the difference between accidental exposure, a habit, and addiction? What qualifies as an "addiction," and can we really use that word when it comes to children and teens?
Paul Lavergne, a Registered Psychotherapist and Certified Sexual Recovery Therapist, is here on the podcast to help us sort through these complicated questions, and give us answers, resources and peace of mind.
