Defending Young Minds from Pornography | POF171

Parenting Our Future - A podcast by Robbin McManne

Talking to your kids about online safety, needs to be as normal as teaching them to safely cross the street. I know we would rather not talk about pornography but the reality is, that every child with a device connected to the internet, is a portal to porn. If you don’t talk to your kids, they will be all alone when they come across porn, (not if, when) and not know how to process what they’ve seen, or have the language for it. Thankfully there are people like my guest, Kristen Jeson who is the founder of Defend Young Minds.com. I love talking to Kristen, but I also hate that I have to. Kristen and I spoke in 2020 about “porn proofing” your kids, and her books “Good Pictures, Bad Pictures”. This time we talk about: The Naivete Gap for parents and what they “think” their kids have seen and what the truth is The 5 things teens wish their parents knew about porn (listen to get the downloadable guide) How sex and violence give us the biggest dopamine hit Resources for parents whose kids have seen porn, or haven’t…yet For Kristen’s guide, How to Talk to Kids About Pornography: Quick Start Guide, you can download it from the Parent Toolbox. www.parent-toolbox.comPrevious episode with Kristen: https://www.parentingforconnection.com/parentingourfuture/episode/2d7cbe0f/good-pictures-bad-pictures-porn-proofing-kids-or-pof54 About Kristen JensonAuthor of #1 best-selling Good Pictures Bad Pictures: Porn-Proofing Today’s Young Kids, Good Pictures Bad Pictures Jr: A Simple Plan to Protect Young Minds, and Good Pictures Bad Pictures Guidebook for Professionals, executive producer of Brain Defense: Digital Safety curriculum, the founder of DefendYoungMinds.com, and owner and CEO of Glen Cove Press.Contact information:Email: [email protected] Media:Website: www.Defendyoungminds.org https://www.defendyoungminds.com/ Books: https://defendyoungminds.com/booksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristen-a-jenson-05816532/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DefendYMInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/defendyoungminds/Twitter: https://twitter.com/DefendYMPinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/DefendYM/Thanks for listening!
