Why?
1. Some researchers have stated that the average
age of exposure to pornography is down to eight.
(Jackson, n.d., para. 1)
2. Images of porn are slow to leave the mind
(some say they can never be fully removed).
(Huddleston, 2012, p. 109)
3. Due to children’s neural plasticity, the urge to
escalate is a real possibility.
