Children today are frequently exposed to explicit content at an alarming young age, often viewing pornography for the first time around age 12, and sometimes even earlier. A significant percentage report accidental exposure, which underscores a gap in sex education. Intriguingly, while young people are having less sex, the nature of their sexual encounters is becoming more aggressive. This disconnect is compounded by the addictive design of digital content, which makes it challenging for kids to navigate and understand such explicit materials without guidance from parents or educators.
Imagine a 10-year-old, smartphone in hand, stumbling onto a porn site or chatting with an AI bot about sex—before their parents have ever uttered a word about bodies, boundaries, or desire.
The average age of first exposure to pornography is now 12, with 15% of kids seeing it before age 10, highlighting the urgent need for sex education.
