Shocking Pornography Statistics

*  17 million women watch pornography once, every week
*  1 out of 3 online pornography viewers are women
*  Pornography earns 10 Billion dollars per year and is one of the fastest growing industries
    (Recent statistics for America)

Even though these are the most recent statistics for America, this has a major impact on South Africa as well, as it has on the rest of the world.

These are serious and most shocking figures - as parents we need to make a serious effort to stand guard on exactly what we allow our children to have access to on the internet.  We can no longer have an attitude; ..'I trust my child will not visit any of those sites'..., and not block certain sites as it so often happens that you accidently stumbles upon a site with sexual content.

As a person, irrespective whether you are a man or a women, you should block the internet to certain sites yourself, for yourself.  We are curious human beings, and for a split second you might not have enough discipline to stay away from sites or those luring links....

How often when you have had a bad day or an argurment with your spouse, and feel rebellious towards who knows what... you switch on the computer, you surf the web and with intent click on an enticing link...

Then my friend.... you are part of the above statistics.
