Too much too young?
Re: Too much too young?
I'm don't think that the situation is as clear cut as that tbh.
As a teenager from Chichester said: “If you put a phone in a child’s hand, you are putting porn in a child’s hand … don’t do it unless you are ready to speak to them about pornography.” It is common for children aged six to encounter pornography online. This would often be pop-ups. An eight-year-old girl in Stoke-on-Trent told me: “I’ve been on YouTube and they’ve just come along. I like going on YouTube and watching videos of how to make slime. You see pictures of people with no clothes and I think – why on earth would that be on the internet? Why would people put it on there, because if people knew little children – four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10 – would see it, wouldn’t they be a bit embarrassed?”
“My dad is a teacher at a primary school and he said that it’s getting worse and worse because young children are getting phones. He said he has to deal with Primary 5 [children aged eight to nine years old] sending pictures of pornography and he gets quite upset when he talks about it.” Another 14-year-old in the same conversation added: “At my sister’s primary school, they had to ban the kids from the internet because Primary 5 were watching things like that.” Teachers told me they had to take tablets away from children for the same reason.
