"We do not have a political or legislative agenda. We are not trying to take away the rights of adults who choose to view pornography. You will never see us lobbying, protesting, getting petitions signed, etc. That’s not how we do things. We simply want to educate people on the harm that pornography can cause, and then allow them to make an educated choice for themselves."

How to talk to your teenagers about pornography: Mayo Clinic Radio
Children are growing up in an age where technology and screen time are a part of life. And while a mobile device can be used to stay connected to family and friends, it also can be used to explore the web away from the watchful eyes of parents. One area of concern for parents is access to pornography and how it may affect the developing teenage brain.
On the Mayo Clinic Radio podcast, Dr. Jennifer Vencill, a Mayo Clinic psychologist and licensed sex therapist, and Dr. Dagoberto Heredia Jr., a Mayo Clinic psychology resident, discuss teens and pornography and offer tips on how to talk to teens about sex.

Amongst bored high school students, the word "pornography" can capture a room's attention in seconds. Emily F. Rothman, Pornography Literacy Scientist, had this discovery while she was speaking to a group of students about teen dating violence, which happens to affect 1 in 5 teenagers each year. While studying dating violence, "pornography" became a recurring topic. She dove further and discovered correlations between pornography, lack of comprehensive sex education, and sexual violence.
Now Emily speaks to students about Pornography Literacy - teaching them to think critically about the sexual images that they consume from the media in order to build dialogue about safe, healthy sex. Watch Emily's TEDMED 2018 Talk to see how Pornography Literacy can re-shape the future of sexual violence in the US.
