13. Porn: How Do We Talk To Our Children About It

How do we talk to our children about porn? It’s one of the biggest questions we still have after making The Family Sex Show. And it's one of the subjects guardians seem to be increasingly concerned about. This episode is an offer, just one of many possible starting points for anyone wanting to begin this conversation with their children. It's been co-created with School of Sexuality Education and is for all people with caring responsibilities for children. 

This episode discusses porn, ethical decision making, sexual consent, gender norms, male gaze, racist tropes, ableism, understanding of safe sex and the use of protection.

In the episode, we mention NSPCC guidance around sexual development and behaviour in children. There's a link to that here:
