Pornography risks should be taught to children as young as five, say parents

67. It violates the western notion...

...that children shouldn't be exposed to sex.

One very eye opening thing for me, when I started visiting other countries and working with immigrants on various projects, was how well versed and open fairly young children tend to be about sex. It's often not a taboo subject at all. I was a bit shocked until someone pointed out to me that, in most of the world, entire families live in homes and apartments containing no more than one or two rooms. From birth on, most children see and hear their parents having sex on a regular basis. If they visit a friend, they may see the friends parents having sex. It's a normal thing for them.

Westerners, since the 1800's at least, tend to believe that children should be shielded from all-things sexual. Pornography violates that shield and upends a cultural norm.
