Episode 39: How do I talk to my kids about pornography?
ABOUT THIS EPISODE
"How do I talk to my kids about pornography?", a question I recently received from a listener and a great question! It's incredibly important to teach our children about pornography and help create a plan to resist. Kristen Jenson and I discuss this incredibly important topic.
Kristen gives some really great practical advice to help parents with this topic and tools to help our children be prepared. As Kristen says: “you have two choices: you can cross your fingers, or you can be proactive!” Let’s be proactive parents!
