In this episode, Dave and Bethlie discuss "Good Pictures Bad Pictures," a critical resource for porn-proofing today's young kids in an age where internet pornography is accessible, affordable, anonymous, and aggressively seeking out our children. This book provides parents with practical tools and age-appropriate language to help children develop their own internal filter against harmful content before they're exposed to it. We'll explore why protecting our kids from pornography is essential and how this book equips families with a proactive plan to address one of the most dangerous threats facing children today.

1. Young children are being exposed to Internet Pornography
   1. They tell several devastating stories of real kids damaged by it
   2. These kids prompted the book
2. Porn is accessible to children and is anonymous and affordable (free)
3. When it comes to kids and pornography, ignorance is risk.
   1. A child's brain is wired to imitate what it sees
   2. A child is therefore more vulnerable to porn
   3. Viewing porn alters a child's brain in such a way that it easily leads to an addiction that is harder to overcome than drugs or alcohol
4. 100% of kids who choose to continue to view porn after an initial exposure are negatively influenced
   1. Today's porn has metastasized into degrading violence, rape, sex with children, group sex, and horrors that cannot be spoken outlaid.
   2. Addiction is very real
   3. Porn is a sinister counterfeit because it teaches that sex is a form of self-gratifying and often violent diversion instead of a way to build a loving committed relationship with someone they trust.
5. Kids must develop their own internet filters.
