On August 25th in Melbourne, Guilty Pleasure, along with The Youth Wellbeing project will be launching workshops for parents called “Raising Porn Resilient Kids.” Running for a couple of hours, the workshops will focus on 2 components:
1. Your relationship with your kids and how to engage conversations with them about porn and online safety.
2. Technology, devices and your kids. Live demonstration of Android and Apple devices projected onto a big screen covering: how to lock down smart phones and tablets, what filtering strategies exist, and live demonstrations of popular apps and the dangers of them.
Here at Guilty Pleasure we believe that parents are very concerned about the effects that pornography and sexualisation are having on their children. These workshops will provide a highly effective opportunity to learn, hear from educated experts, build relationship with other like minded parents and ask questions in dedicated Q&A sessions. Our vision is to expand this beyond the workshops to a website called Porn Resilient Kids that will offer further online training resources for parents and short app demonstrations and updates for a small yearly subscription fee.
