My name is makeable life can bring many difficult situations domestic violence addictions, poverty and even sexual abuse by your loved ones welcome Amy, and like you, though my partner Lori I everybody thank you for joining us.

I hope that all safe in this pandemic. I hope and pray that your spirits are high and that you know that seeing God will get better. Our show is available online on the radio here for any smart phone, and our website got insecure.com.

We are broadcasting live from Miami to satellite available in more than 11 states, among others, and soon after the show on any podcast play. This show deals with suffering the tenacity of the human spirit. The will to survive and encourage to keep moving forward despite any obstacle with the help of God and each other. We do provide testimonials to let people know that they're not alone in the testimony started with me having been a survivor from child abuse well into young adulthood. We also have experts in several fields and inspirational speakers that are willing to help us with valuable information. Knowing that education is necessary. Awareness is crucial in comfort is needed.

I do believe we all suffer or have suffered from something and we hope to be a source of healing for each other.

My came from God, but other forms of healing are presented as well to service everyone life can be challenging but always know there's always someone who cares. There's always hope this only played earlier was my oh my, I can like a bail and The baby okay do we know what is influencing our young minds today. As we grow to greater understanding. We tend to blend in with our environment and what seems to work in what seems to be okay to others, can be detrimental to young minds.

It is my experience that kids search the web connected to social media, way more than they watch TV and even more so than they just talking to their parents and we are blessed if you have a child that is willing to have an open dialogue and share their concerns with the parent that isn't most teens and 20s. We are so careful to warn them about stranger danger. Ever since they were little kids when it comes to the Internet.

It's a new idea that Internet best friend as my daughter told me one day with excitement and the kids have no clue who's on the other side given them a false sense of security. Just because the strangers not in front of 10 posting an immediate threat to me know about those conversations or the sites visited or even the ones that tend to pop up poisoning young minds and we know how to safeguard our children from harm and the possible danger so easily available to our kids to advanced technology and the Internet era today to talk about helping our kids develop internal filters against inappropriate content provided.

I will go to listen to our special guest is Kristin Jensen, founder of protect young minds.

She's also a best-selling author. Good pictures that pictures series of children's books aiming at helping parents empower their kids with tools to resist and reject pornography. Kristin is an active member in the safeguard alliance of the national coalition to end sexual exploitation and has testified before the Washington state Senate law and justice committee on the public health crisis of pornography. Kristin, thank you for being on the show we are now life. It's an honor very blessed with wonderful guests like yourself. I understand that. Unfortunately, Kristin.

Many kids are exposed to weather be like it or not happen to pornography and it's some it's very unhealthy. Kristin, how common is it and why did you start to work in this area very common. More common parent realize they factored other naïveté Between parent rank. There you and what is actually fennec.

So, for example, there was a done in the UK and where 25% of the parent Dr. kids had a pornography online, but in fact 3% of those kids of their kids had been born had admitted 15 pornography online. When you look at the feet, the gender of those 32% thought on scene photography and actually 68%. I've seen it and with girls. The gap is even larger percent of the parents thought that their daughter photography when a whopping 58%.

So more and more kids are being pornography through social media yet in all kinds of form platform and is becoming normalized in and the kids society so that is a real problem and it means that we have to start younger and younger you children about this problem of pornography.

While I don't really see there's a huge need for you, but I understand must be very difficult for the kids get even. I go on my twitter page and I see something disgusting that I don't want to see. I do not invited. I did not ask for it. Okay I know to block it but what her kids to do. They have no idea what's coming at them.

It's something that they should be very alarming.

Tell me about what brought you into this work. That's something that I do when I was younger I didn't dream of becoming now an author that wrote book about life insurance and when I moved to a new city my husband to move here for a new job. I met a woman and told me to call me up when I told me about her 17-year-old son who had they found out that he'd been sexually molesting his younger brothers and sisters four-year-old all the way to the 14-year-old and he and pornography was involved and it was grad for community did counseling the boy had needed to leave at 70 and not anything as though he would've waited for programs. Our state has and what we're finding is more and more children and we can talk about this later, but more more children are doing that. There are looking at pornography and then they're doing what they are wired to do and that is imitate what they see adults felt after I have this conversation with this mother and her tragic story. I woke up the next morning and I just had. I was welcome out about is how I can just as I just felt compelled to go for a resource for her young children by one about the novel because I can see that they were late and so I looked and I looked, I couldn't find anything as I did more research on how pornography impacts the brain of children. I realize you know it is hard to wellness balances in simple terms, and to produce a book that could educate Eldred and empower them and help them know what to do when they started on that book and I thought I'll get it done in a week in the summer and that wasn't the case years to get it out to the public and felt that was the birth of good pictures that pictures pornography today and then because Aaron started to ask me for a younger version of years later I published the pictures that pictures you hear a simple plan all these years. The thing it's it's it's it's a very difficult thing to deal with because you know were talking about kids that don't have a genetic component for being a child abuser or it's not that you know it's not that happened to them and gives a normally perfect kid that is ruined just from something he saw nothing and entire family goes down we will continue talking with Kristin Jensen about protecting the children outside world that influences you would love to hear from you, 1866 34 truth again 634 truth must consider also Paul was not there another $20 gold. So don't lead you to be just like a comeback. This is a new Couto and thanks for tuning.

Remember the goodness of the radio show life through our up the cure was amicable on social media, Facebook, Twitter or YouTube or later is about cost song they just played less power by your messengers. We are made to love and forgive others as well as ourselves, the way Jesus taught us when we truly live our best lives with God in its nothing is back her tears apart from the ones we love and not life or death from God to let our fears and failures keep us down. We will need to live to keep pushing ahead to be 40 years like lions when the new has come and hold this debt and when we know it will be all right if Our broker. I'm still working on my powers will some of you help out.

Also I write my also want to remind you about the cold. This was started is no suggestion of assault that we can play on the show thrower conduct a spiritual drought is acute ethical and if we played you will receive $25 gifts of thank you so much for this. We're talking to Kristin Jensen discussing protecting and educating our children from potential dangers of outside influences in a world that sometimes sexually generalized. Kristin is a kids need to be warned about the dangers of pornography is to have access to the Internet. Tell us more about why a lot of parent that one. How are how early I began talking like that photography and the answer is that he said they have any access to the Internet whether it your all weather home right now. During the coded lockdown. It's starting to open up a lot of on a lot of devices for hours and hours and it's really important is given a warning early on before they get both. Ideally, though, that you give them the first knowledge of that and you are able to transmit your values when you talk about self.

I think every child needs everything. The first is the definition definition of pornography or bad pictures so that they can recognize it. That's the first step to rejecting pornography is the ability to recognize it and name it. So the first step is to define and simple definitions that I used in good pictures that pictures of something like this, pornography or bad videos that are all little or no clothing on that focus on the price parts of the body that that's a very simple age-appropriate definition.

We don't need to follow him all the horrors of what's in the violent toxic photography out there and that we just need to give them enough information so that they can recognize and help about it and then the second thing you need now is a warning. Any why photography is harmful what it is you have become addicted and although now the really harmful things that come as a result of engaging in an verdict they needed land rightly all things that are and were not caught off guard cells need plan. They need to know exactly what you when they see pornography.

I dislike deal fire drill right or other kinds of bills you need to give them a soaks definition, a warning and a plan so you find a way in your blog to introduce this difficult truth in a gentle way and also educate them so that they're able to protect themselves because we can't always be there for them is impossible. We can take everywhere only got Sorry when it got so here's the thing. A lot of us don't know the dangers it's great that you have this book for kids to warn them that about the appearance do we even know about it can be sometimes. Some of us think it's no big deal. That's part of going up on its part of, you know them, discovering themselves and others and oh I wrote something very interesting by Ramada. There is some acumen three I thinking in England, some 5 miles this essay for what you think about this essay form Kristin order. Think about about what I think about guided their that we randomly are female friendly born or just go back to Manitowoc man and make it romantic in loving the thought is going to be appropriate in the back and educate our children how I totally reject that. Because what happens is what we think is a sciences that people start using pornography to become aroused and then they go on because what they're walking becomes boring right and the brain is like this, you know.

Have you ever bought something new and then after a little while wasn't exciting anymore. Now I remember buying a new car. Years ago, and it is not society, not because the dopamine in my brain has kind of you know I'm down so happens is pornography is supernormal stimulus really powerful and when kids get bored of or people board of one kind of pornography. They will go on to another one will act upon act upon it. Watching it is not enough time not usually people yet they masturbate.

Yes, that would kids learn you and in and that and then when you put those two together.

It is very powerful and that how can we limited here's where I am concerned is that he missed the whole picture. The beauty of it all becomes something different, it becomes a quick fix and then not only that, that the young lions don't see it for what it is and then what if you become dependent and that's the only way they can get a rose is an eviction and no normal things don't work anymore matters very well documented. I called Oren into direct object function while being my magazine did a big made, you know, I definitely want to go into them. We come back from the great the great brick to take care love you write that call us at 866 34 to those what you think about with your inappropriate Internet content life can bring many difficult situations, domestic violence, addictions, poverty, but even sexual abuse by your loved ones. The issue is not stay there, but to overcome all obstacles been shouldered with the love of God, your husband and your family.

You can succeed. Love is the answer. God is the key word reveals baby Cabo's life, a warrior who didn't give up and achieve the dream of her life.

You can see this you can so I change this will come back yet with and gloriously wonderful partner like every Saturday at 1 PM Eastern radio and or haptics your smart phone and your website God is that you talk all shows are available as you and all video book costs just look for the cure for the beautiful song they displayed. Let's change this heart. I said well profit over the works of the drug. Thank you also for submitting the smoke going to get the gift certificate versa. Often times the young innocent minds don't realize what is not good for them. What slowly separates them from God. Sometimes there in a false reality. It's up to us to guide them and teach them as her sweet Jesus has done for us. The way he took away arson sealed our brokenness, even when we pushed him away and specially when we weren't that strong terahertz in this world that can challenge our faith. Sometimes all we can do is praise God and pray for he is the only one that can bring about a change of heart and make all things right again. I also wanted to remind you again about the cultists were started political suggestions for so that we can play on the show thrower conduct of spiritual God is the critical the lucky winner will get a $25 gift certificate certificate like uncongested we're talking to Kristin Jensen and advocate about educating and protecting our children advanced technology. Basically, the World Wide Web, what something will thrive okay. The web here that I hear okay Kristin and you know we were talking about how pornography can be an addiction.

And these kids don't come with instructions. They don't see it coming. Does this in the section booklets. If you ask they have no clue what's gonna happen to them and as we were talking earlier. These kids can end up becoming desensitized or they become dependent on Dick and acted upon somebody else because don't think the big deal I remember hearing the story. Some girls are watching a Pournelle in in school and that one of the girls came home and try their little brother to talk to her friends she knew about it now. You know it's it's kind of crazy things to you in your book. I mean, what can we do to help prevent these things talk about safety rules look at safety rules can we establish no in your but got I got I think people with a body pornography and child are very connected. So you need to keep your child not only to the you know they are there body and not let people think but there's so many that are getting what we call sordid extortion the child goes online and they are no other predators there and they form a relationship with the child and then they get the child to send them pictures and then more and more pictures and then they threaten the child so this is happening. The FBI physically problem the growing problem and for the reason you help kids under and how to say online in the digital world they live in that their growing up in and forth despite their many wonderful things about technology. I mean here we are talking together brought oxidants of the country and work were talking and seeing each other so that's an amazing thing that technology provides broad but it's important for parents to start their children against these dangers and in good pictures that pictures and good pictures that your reviewthing you make her comfortable super easy to give kids the basic definition he warned them and give them up plan what you and AC photography so that they are prepared and that they can minimize the damage it does sound as yet.

I can't stress enough action and pornography and child sexual abuse that only chum adult from other children as in the story the old. I hear the words all the time and it other conferences now. I've spoken with them that are really starting to tackle this problem of child harmful effects of behavior on because it doesn't help you and it doesn't only have to be told so that what you tell the child is being Nikolai catch fish that they may pretend to be a child with a man to pretend to be another person that they're not. Slowly but surely start working on the child and grooming the child and showing them pornographic images and things like that and as much as I try to talk to my toxic know mom for sure. It's a kids pressure behind you now have you seen them in video. Now I only see pictures so it's it's a matter of educating because these predators are very good about being manipulative and it could very easily poison a tough mind. There are really extortion ring where they have all the first guy in there & go to performing whatever, pretend brand start. Then they handed over and over to the next person to get the first and escalate and then they get it. The next person is the one that threatens the child and get the really compromising 80 actual pictures or new pictures of the child disallows networks happening will law on network if they can organize crying and organized crime is organized, lowers your network messing around me and that's probably how they get along, child trafficking and probably they daily pornography other children to once the kidnapped and it's a very scary thing just happens with your kids being in the bedroom watching something you have nuclear in the living room watching TV. Don't know yet you don't know our from all walks of life, though even demographic where they had impact family parent. You know they're not in poverty. All corporate risks that are on the Internet we can keep them in different you yes this toxic material. You are just like the virus abuse doesn't discriminate. It's an opportunistic thing.

Just like the virus supporting pandemic or in pandemic so we have to learn to talk church and try to keep an open dialogue. I know that not all kids talk to their parents very blessed that one up and do to not that you don't always get so you have to find him ways of trying to get it intensely. You know when you have them at the dinner table or stuck will you have to have the first Barbara we get no wonderful advice about our private car get ATM and you know I think you should go hand-in-hand with sex education as soon as you think you should start talking to them about sex education that should let them know the dangers of how people have exploited sex kids don't know people exploit sex.

That's the thing, the weather start the book about sex and aggression never know. It depends on your culture. Kristin will do think I rather than later. Now my book outward sign to be read children before you have a conversation but I study with 10 people who identified as struggling with pornography or had that overcoming addiction and they were very different, but the one thing they had in common was that their parent did not talk to them about no education.

So there. And so basically they went to porn to find out because these things are getting all the news coming in from the media from their environment from other children.

Even and they want to know why you have to learn about their environment. They have to learn how to be an adult. I so if their parents won't sit them down and talk to them. Not only an act of sex, but the value of affect the purpose of right is to be loving you will and guilty of you to first understand yielding my kids found out before I can explain it to them. You know, and it's very good advice that you give because it can happen to any of us. We would love to hear from you. Tell us about your personal story. Just in God, 38, 60 study porch life can bring many difficult situations, domestic violence, addictions, poverty and even sexual abuse by your loved ones.

The issue is not stated your book to overcome all obstacles been shouldered with the love of God, your husband and your family. You can succeed. Love is the answer. God is the key word reveals baby combos life, a warrior who didn't give up and achieve the dream of her life. You can get to know more about her at her story on God is the key word.com or buying her book on Amazon.com all the known world again and things between related every Saturday at 1 PM Eastern radio are at the cuter transition media here later. The show will be available as a pop growth as well. Search for the cure was amicable. Amy spelled with a lie and a doubly Christian song that just played less O Lord, I learned, loneliness can be the hardest thing to deal with them only depend on outside serve sources. We come undone. We can stand your ground where hope can be found God's love will lift us up about allies. She always hears her cries and we know that no matter what we face and cuts good time. He makes it right. Very interesting. Also want to remind you about the cultist. We started again lugging you let us know suggestion for a song that we compare the show through our conduct of spiritual God is the cure.com and you can receive $25 gift certificate to continue talking to Kristin Jensen helping us teach parents how to protect their kids from some bad effects of the Internet. Kristin, we are talking about how pornography can be an addiction and it's something that can come very easily answer for some of us that are not familiar with the addiction of pornography is it is not as drug addiction and is it is a strong as drug addiction and alcohol addiction addiction math. Math three. Phone 24 750 room a bit of a map problem. If you have a big problem and I feel that pornography is the word addiction for children especially because we pretty much children from tobacco and alcohol, and other addictive but were not protecting them from some of these natural addiction or behavioral and that is no pornography and easily accessible to any child that has an Internet connection, or can get now through an inapt browser so is so important feeling in them an internal filter begin talking to them at a young age so that we can transmit our values and help them and why they should reject ethnography and and how they can be a happier person. By doing so, and you know I've made my life work you to help parents start the conversation. It's very easy and simple to do through good pictures that pictures if you have any questions, you can go to Amazon and look at the reviews there's hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of reviews saying that it made it so easy to begin these conversations and also our website young line.org.

We had tons of died have blah blah set up very regularly and we had all kinds of topics that are pertinent for herein that are now in a very daunting time to have this information, is the thing Christina loses everything you said something interesting happier person so that she just took it from my mind. I was about to ask you next.

What do you do with the person at the ready with the child that's ready, addicted, are they can have the trolls on the can it be depressed.

What do we do for that person and explain to us how they can be a happier person doing the right thing right though all I think educating a child force the child now become a teenager and whatever very difficult for anyone to do anything right. I know how mad it with the way I love a foundation of love and elation and education now know they would be the slip that no funds will allow you know that a good question. I give them choice you have to let them know that they need to do the right thing on their own, but not for someone say we don't trust you to do the right thing.

God doesn't even do that we have to trust them to do the right thing on the list on don't listen, we can guide then the we noted that a child yes I think I thing we can wear where we are paying for that that our telephone.

We are actually responsible so you can click on cell phone like Clark something I think things are accountability programs that will help monitor her really need to be monitored are not old enough to only bring what is left is to get one call call cabinet.

I guess I that labor Christian audience is another one that really good at monitoring social media called Mark and they opened the report, something that is concerning light bullying or suicide ideation or or no pornography that I think you report to alert you so they can let you know all kinds of new technologies out there to help monitor what their children and is monitoring not spying. It's okay job okay because let me tell you, you think that you're getting your kids privately. Google is not privacy me tell you and creditors are getting it out there. They're not giving the kids privately felt really important to monitor your children to educate them and help them understand harm of pornography and the harm of viewing and getting involved in the only hijacked their sexual see pornography. You don't need. I'm sorry pornography you see expert trade as a loving hi itself is in no thing.

Finally discussing the grading as women will not object instead of a person or object you a toy you not a person that's terrible like these people and I think yes it I mean we're all guilty of it. It's not like I've never been guilty that you know we live and we learn what is it really messed help others. The way that I can get all of the earth like the family having good pictures that picture or the turnaround help plan with the one we haven't Junior but go on to protect online and go to our resources page and download the free PDF okay so that I get it and we have a lot of other guy like you how to talk to your kids about photography. The quick die young minds that wonderful research I saw dark while that is an amazing one is always racist because all the other dangers we can see the end of the visual L.thank you again Kristin. It was great to have you in the show and looking back and forth as you're on the computer but the camera are very welcome and I'm so happy to be able to talk with you and your audience and healthy you want to grow up and have a healthy sex life with them and they love and are committed to or taken in the opposite direction and you want them to have a healthy marriage or healthy relationship with them now basically not object to find out is so important and will here's the thing. All the other dangers you think old they might not get abused or the mind that this might not happen within my neck and run over by a car or a lightning struck my not hit them, but porno popping up in your phone other Internet where all you all know blood from so we just above these with the like porn actually pops up on your on your phone will you whatever okay part of their group like the National Center patient that are working to get better and play and hold accountable. And though things are going forward.

And there is some progress being made happy to report that whatever rocket we believe that we have to be the one that warned them about the dangers in their work behaviors that we had actually doesn't dinner out, you working to finish the prayer. Thank you so much Kristin Lord technology has helped the world in many ways, but it has also proven to be a sneer and to send to the door of pornography.

We ask a hedge of protection against this temptation has the power to damage families and scar the spirit of both the one who these pornography and those who love them caught up in this trap help keep our minds on you in such a powerful way that pornography holds nuclear give us the wisdom to remove temptations that we cannot persist and to always keep you first in our hearts and minds.
