Protecting Our Children: Therapist Jo Robertson on Addressing Youth Pornography Exposure

In Episode 22 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast, Chloe and Keshia engage in a profound and candid discussion with Jo Robertson, a renowned expert in the fields of and Relationship Therapy, Betrayal and Trauma Specialization, and Sexual Health Consultation. In this chat, we delve into Jo's significant body of work pertaining to the exposure of young individuals to pornography. Confronting this issue head-on and shedding light on the alarming ease with which today's youth encounter explicit content, the prevalence of aggressive and detrimental material on freely accessible online platforms, the resulting impact on young people, and the potential challenges they may encounter due to such exposure. As parents, we approach this conversation with genuine curiosity and a sincere desire to learn how to effectively communicate with our children about the likelihood of them encountering pornography. We seek insights on how to provide our young adults with a comprehensive and trustworthy framework for discussing sexuality within the confines of our homes for years to come. This dialogue is not only eye-opening but also, at times, astonishing, making it an imperative listen for parents who wish to stay informed and engaged in their children's lives.
