In the 17th episode, hosts Dr Meghna and Devishobha talk about how in a world where we have unbridled internet access, countless children are consuming porn from an unbelievably young age. Research has shown that having age-appropriate conversations about pornography with children and adolescents helps them develop a healthy and respectful view of relationships and sex. Despite this, most parents don’t have these conversations with their children, due to fear of embarrassment. The hosts discuss the current trends in children consuming sexualized online content and why it’s important to provide age-approrpiate sexual health information to our children. They also discuss how parents can ideally respond when they catch their teens watching porn, and how to use ‘teachable’ moments to talk to their teens about porn.The hosts share their guidelines on how to have porn conversations in an age-appropriate manner: PORNP= Prevent shamingO= Open questionsR= Rational discussionN= No connect with real lifeBig Talk About Tiny Humans is India’s first research-based podcast for parenting and educators, hosted by Devishobha Chandramouli and Dr Meghna.
