Today, Mark Gregston, Wayne Shepherd and Courtney LaFleur discuss the difficult but essential topic of teens’ exposure to pornography. They emphasize that nearly all teens — boys and girls — will encounter it due to its widespread availability online, making open, shame-free conversations at home vital. Curiosity is often the first motivator, but ongoing exposure can distort a teen’s understanding of intimacy and lead to deeper struggles. Parents are encouraged to respond with grace rather than shame, set healthy boundaries, create accountability and maintain ongoing, honest discussions to guide teens toward truth and purity.
