But by that I mean children/kids/even teenagers (under 18 maybe) should not be allowed to watch porn. There is nothing wrong with porn, as long as the audience can distinguish between fantasy and reality and not become addicted to it. Overall, it is human nature to crave for sexual gratification and those with sound minds should be allowed to enjoy porn. Basically, I am saying porn can be really awesome and my rubbish bin will find comments like "watching porn is immoral/disguising" refreshingly delicious. However, most children/young teens are not mentally equipped to handle pornography. Most of them are both addicted to and misled by porn, which engenders all kinds of problem. (Teenage pregnancy for example) I know you know how easy it is for young people to get access to porn nowadays and it is simply exposing them to all sources of danger. This, in my humble opinion, should be a reason to restrict porn. Call me conservative if you will, but squeamishness about what we want our children to be exposed to is not bigotry. Some people are simply not mature enough for porn, and we know it. So I might die out of laughter if someone attempts to argue that porn is unequivocally good for all ages. It is NOT!! Let's not defend the undefinable and do what we know we should do. Children aren't allowed to watch porn, though. The thing is, I don't believe there is any effective way to stop them doing it on the internet right now. Though it definitely isn't good for anyone so young, and parents should stop them watching it as much as possible. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is way too easy for them to watch porn. Shouldn't that be a reason for the government to intervene a little bit? Say.... requiring an account to get access to pornographic websites? (and the account owner must prove his/her age?) It might sound naive and it is difficult to enforce and it might invade people's privacy. but if there is a will there's a way. Just because righting the wrong is difficult doesn't mean that we shouldn't at least give it a try.... We are not creatures of despondency.... "parents should stop them watching it as much as possible." -- I am glad that you also think porn should be somewhat restricted, especially when it comes to protecting children. Parents definitely play a huge role here. Edited September 24, 2016 by Guest Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
