Shocking Statistics:

50 % of teens say they visited porn sites on the Internet.
 
79% of these same teens did so from their school or public library.
 
67% of the same teens did so from home.
 
75% of these teens' parents felt they knew exactly what their teens
were accessing on the Internet, when in actuality, they had no idea
their children were into Hard-Core Porn sites.
 
The average age of a child's first pornographic experience is 12
years old. 71% said the Internet is their number one source.
 
Teens use the Internet an average of 8.5 hours per week for chatting
and e-mailing, compared to 1.8 hours spent using it for school work.
 
An estimated 18.8 million kids under 18 years old have access to
home computers.
 
Playboy’s website, which offers free teaser shots of its Playmates,
averages 5 million hits per day.
 
In August, 1997, there were 92,000 sexually explicit sites on the
Internet and an estimated 266 new porn sites were added every day.
"Adult" entertainment is estimated to be the largest sector of
sales on the Internet. 
 
The vast majority of Americans (94%) believe a ban on Internet
pornography should be legal.
 
More Stats:
 

The statistics concerning pornographic material on the Internet
are shocking. More than 80 percent of content on the Internet is
pornographic. Currently, over 1,000 computer "bulletin board services"
(BBSs) offer pornography. Yet, perhaps even more frightening than
the amount of pornographic websites, is its accessibility to
people of all ages.

The statistics concerning pornographic material on the Internet
are shocking. More than 80 percent of content on the Internet is
pornographic. Currently, over 1,000 computer
"bulletin board services" (BBSs) offer pornography.3 Yet,
perhaps even more frightening than the amount of pornographic
websites, is its accessibility to people of all ages.

According to the National Coalition for the Protection of Children
and Families (NCPCF), computer users—including children—can download
"soft-core nudity, hard-core sex acts, bestiality, bondage and
domination, sadomasochism, scatological acts, and child pornography.
Types of textual pornography include detailed stories on the rape,
mutilation and torture of women, sexual abuse of children and graphic incest."4

The Wall Street Journal states, "Oddly, the porn industry has
blossomed precisely because the product no longer has to be viewed
in steamy movie theaters in the company of raincoated men, but can
be enjoyed in the privacy of the home."5

As a result of this easy access, pornography use has exploded.
According to a Newsweek article, 180,000-500,000 people access the
"alt.sex" group of Usenet on a monthly basis. Owned by Playboy Magazine,
the website receives approximately 4.7 million visits per week.6 There
has never been a time in history when such massive distribution of
pornographic material has been paralleled. And sadly, because of the
nebulous quality of the Internet, currently very few safeguards or
age-check procedures are in place to monitor its distribution.

Recent controversy has focused on the problem of pornography’s
availability in public school libraries. In fact, the Internet
Online Summit in 1997 in Washington, D.C., revealed that 70 percent
of children viewing online pornography are doing so in public schools
and libraries.10 Many parents were surprised that computers hooked up
in their child’s school library were not monitored, thus giving students
unlimited access to pornographic material. Outraged parents have called
for filtering devices to be placed on computers.

Access to pornography in public libraries has had negative repercussions.
The organization Filtering Facts issued a report that detailed the following
statistics received from libraries during 1997-98:14

    * Adults accessing pornography—231 incidents
    * Adults harassing library staff with pornography—7 incidents
    * Adults accessing child pornography—20 incidents
    * Children accessing pornography—195 incidents
    * Adults exposing children to pornography—46 incidents
    * Attempts to molest children in libraries—4 incidents

Regulating the Internet through the use of filtering devices is one positive
step. However, personal monitoring by adults is also necessary for children.
Many times, pornographic sites are unintentionally accessed during routine searches.
For example, a search for the White House’s web page brings up a pornographic site
with a similar address. Considering the large number of young people on
the Internet, you can see the danger in unregulated sites.

What can be done?

Creating a "safety net" for your kids on the Internet is a concern of many parents.
But since the Internet is increasingly difficult to regulate, what can a parent do?

    * Never reveal personal information.
    * Remember that people may not be who they say they are.
    * Never meet an online friend in person for the first time without a parent 
present.
    * Never respond to flames (a strongly worded or obscene message which often erupts
      in newsgroups and can spill over into private e-mail).
    * Stop immediately if you see or read anything that upsets you.
    * Avoid spending too much time online.
    * Compose a written family guideline for net safety. Make sure that your kids
      understand that these rules apply equally when they use their computer at home,
      in school or at a friend’s house.
