The internet is one of the greatest forms of communication and access to information. The amount of information that can be acquired in such a short time is mind boggling and even overwhelming at times. But not all information is good, especially information that is unsolicited and unwanted The biggest culprit of unwanted and unsolicited information on the internet is by far pornography and our children are becoming victims.
The multi-billion-dollar pornography industry is proliferating at an alarming rate and at least 30 million people on a porn site every day. This is literally causing a porn epidemic and a “porn addiction” for many, and the industry is taking no prisoners. They do not care who watches, or who are the viewers They do not care if it causes problems for the home, marriages, or children, they just want their money And the newest market to tap in for them with absolutely no remorse or shame is the sanctity of the home. No one is safe, specially our children Let’s be honest whether you hate or condone porn no parent wants access to this type of material avpockie.
Many homes and marriages are already in shambles and are wrecked every day as a result of the continual and uncontrolled lust, urges, and viewing habits of one or both of the married spouses. This is true for church going people Porn is infiltrating everywhere Surprisingly more and more women also seem to be lured in porn, and on the porn websites to the tune of about 9.4 million per month. Women are more likely to keep this a secret so the number is probably too high. In addition to the vast number of homes that are experiencing problems, Internet pornography is it’s worklplace on its toll, as well as reports of 75% people working on accidentally or deliberately pornographic websites, and 15% of them visited more than 10 times
These figures are alarming when it comes to adult viewers But the porn industry is targeting our children as well. And if the porn industry’s targeting of our children is not too bad enough there are also our children accessing ways to accessing the Internet. If you have a child that has regular access to a computer and the internet then this should be of considerable interest to you. Our children are a treasure and they are our future The things that are exposed at young and tender ages have a lasting and long-term effect. It is up to us as parents and protects our children from physical influences. If we do not then who will?
One in four children who used to be exposed to unwanted sexual material Twenty percent of youths who use the sexual solicitations Eighty-nine percent of sexual solicitations At least 26 children’s character names (including Pokemon and Action Man) are the thousands of porn links linked to. One in five children ages 10 – 17 had received a sexual disorder over the internet and 70% of sexual advances over the internet. The average age of first exposure to porn is 11 years old and 14% of 7 – 17 years olds will freely give out email addresses to unknown solicitors.
Chat rooms by far are probably the most dangerous places for children. The reason why is an internet predator is actually capable of having real time contact with your child. The predator is also able to perform many cases in your child. They are looking for ways to get your child to trust them, and believe me some of these shady online hunters are very good at this and should not be taken lightly. According to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children incidents of child sexual exploitation has risen from 4,573 in 1998 to 112,083 in 2004.
Our homes and our children are not able to protect from the onslaught of internet pornography and internet predators. They will, it seems, stop at nothing to gain profit and / or corrupt a child. This is a problem that can be stopped. Do not wait until it is a problem This is your Home, your Family, and you are young about real life, and the Boogey Man is real
