If you're a young man or woman addicted to porn, you probably remember the gateway drug that led you to your current shameful, sweaty state: your first smartphone. By the age of 11, more than half of all children have already been exposed to pornography. The average age at which children get their first smartphone is now 10 years old. “PornHub Insights data reveals that 86 percent Most of your site's traffic comes from mobile devices. ”
it gets bad. “Currently, children under the age of 10 account for 22 percent of online pornography consumption. Thirty-six percent of underage consumers are accounted for by those between the ages of 10 and 14.” Not exactly minor Are you a consumer? Smartphones aren't just smart; they're devilish, at least in this respect.
And that's a cruel dilemma for every parent I know. Full disclosure: Three of my kids got her iPhone when she was 14, which is the youngest age I would buy one. We don't want them to become degenerate fapmonkeys, but we do want to know where they are. We don't want to lose precious souls to demonic addictions that make them permanently distorted and unfit for normal human relationships, but we also want them to be able to call 911 if they have an accident. I am thinking of doing so.
So what should parents do? Here are some technical solutions that may help.
windmill
Pinwheel is a hardware solution, a “smart” phone that lets you curate apps based on how long you've used them. Their mission statement sounds pretty cool. “We are putting humans in the driver's seat of technology. Our mission is to reimagine the use of technology in the lives of young people in the developing world.” All phones cost less than $400 and The curated app library does not include web browsers, social media, or video games. It also prohibits apps built on “.vegas effect”, eliminates compulsive dopamine hit-seeking. We also use our award-winning Parent Control service. bark Alerts you when your child is doing something worthy of a red flag.
There's WhatsApp, Signal, and Zoom, but you can choose the apps you want your kids to have and block the ones you don't.
gab wireless
Gab Pinwheel is similar to the smartphone or smartwatch you buy from Gabb and your own wireless plan. Like Pinwheel, there is no browser or social media available. “Gabb Wireless provides families with products that connect them with friends and family while keeping children safe. As a result, they have more time to experience the world in a positive way.” Gabb is having a Black Friday sale where you can get a free phone right now. No parental control center is as robust as Pinwheel, but it's very popular among parents I know.
Custodio
Don't want to buy a new gadget? Qustodio is an app that you can download to devices you already own, such as your phone, tablet, or laptop. Parents I know say it works. We also provide helpful resources on our website. One article The title of their post is “How to teach kids how to spot fake news,'' which I think is very interesting.
bark
I mentioned this above, but it looks interesting. For $5 to $15 a month, you can download the Bark app and filter content to suit your device. Web browsing is allowed, but you can block content in 19 different categories and receive warnings even if you try to access certain categories, such as pornography. This is quite expensive for a large family, but if she or he is the only child using the phone, it might be worth it. We also sell Bark Home, a $79 piece of hardware with no monthly fee. However, please be careful. If you don't break bad habits first, you'll end up setting off the bark alarm.
traditional catholic
This is the lowest cost entry on my list. In fact, it's completely free! It's also wireless, so you don't have to download anything or set up a cumbersome portal. It also has some very nice long-term benefits that may or may not include eternal life. I'm sure windmills can't give that to your kids. It also works on all devices, including digital as well as print.
Because this is the unvarnished truth. Once they see it, you can't keep them down on your farm. Carl Hungs. Our only hope for true immunity to porn and other child-eating brain worms is to teach our children what chastity really is and why they should embrace it as a lifestyle. It's about getting them to understand.
godspeed
I know it's hard, but you really only have one job. Parents, don't let your kids use porn. They'll regret it, and you'll regret it when you lose your children to sissy porn addiction and your son changes his name to Emily.
If you are still addicted, pull up your dirty pants, wash your hands, and pray for help. The least you can do is switch your porn addiction to a less destructive addiction with fewer trafficked sex slaves. May I recommend P2P street stimulants?
