Children today have much more room for error compared to growing up less then half a century ago. Laura Curtis wrote, "Playing Keep Away with Porn," and she made the great point that children these days are much more sophisticated. Emotionally they are not equipped to deal with the adult topics that they are exposed to.
Pornographers also buy expired domain names and commonly misspelled domain names to trick people into viewing porn. This type of porn is called ambush porn. The link below is a video that shows how this trick fools internet users every day.
There are several preventative measures that can be taken to keep children from viewing pornography. Never let your children alone in there room with a computer; make the child sit in more of a living room type area. Install filters and pop-up blockers to all of the internet accessible devices in your home. Children should also know that if something comes up on the the screen that make them feel uncomfortable they should go to an adult for help. Children should not have to deal with those situations by themselves. We should not lower our standards of what is acceptable for children. Let them enjoy the innocent childhood they deserve.
