			Children are very curious and technologically speaking, they are very skillful. And this is one of
the reasons why they made the waste online * at a very, very young age. The average age at
which a child in the UK first use internet is eight and the majority of these children access to
internet in the bedroom without parents or any adult present Little wonder why 58% of children aged
14 to 17 have already watched * without the knowledge of their parents on their
smartphones, magazines, on TVs in the movies, and of course, on million other websites available on
the internet. And as much as it is the responsibility of parents to provide what is necessary to
		
00:00:46 --> 00:01:00
			protect their children from falling victims to these websites. It is also the responsibility of
educational institutes, and schools to educate to raise awareness about the harmful impact of
*.
		
00:01:19 --> 00:02:00
			Welcome back, everyone. You're watching * demmick simplifying academic research about the harmful
impact of *. One of the things that I'm very passionate about is to provide this part of
education in order to protect our children from falling victims to the dangerous impact of
* because young generations are the future of all nations. There is no question about
that. The study at hand took place in the UK and it is titled online * should schools be
teaching young people about the risks and exploration of the views of young people and teaching
professionals? The study had targeted students in various schools as well as staff members and
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:49
			teachers in those same schools? And the aim of the research was to answer the following three
questions. Number one, do young people really access *? Do they number two, how do they
perceive it to affect them? And number three, do they think that schools should be teaching about
the potential harms of * Now listen to this 39 secondary schools in London were contacted
to participate and take part in this anonymous survey, 14 of them 14 schools declined to take any
part in that research, few schools apologize due to time constraints and other excuses. And 20.
Schools did not even reply to that request. Only five, five schools out of 39 agree to participate
		
00:02:49 --> 00:03:40
			and take part of that research. And that tells you that we're not doing enough to protect our
children within these respectable institutions. And finally, a total of 218 students have taken part
in this very interesting study. 173 girls and 45 boys on the top of that 23 staff members and
teachers also participated and responded to the same set of questions that were posed to students,
15 females and eight males and here is the finding, responding to the first question of the survey
are young people viewing sexually explicit media? That's * by the way 65.9% of total
students said yes, they have viewed *, with boys being 5.9 times more likely to watch
		
00:03:40 --> 00:04:23
			* than girls How about staff members they to believe that young people do access
* with boys more likely to access these content than girls staff members also added that
most likely young people would view * for the following three reasons number one,
information they wanted to know about *. And since that part of education is almost absent in our
homes and in our schools. Where do they go? *? Number two curiosity we already mentioned
earlier, they are curious by nature, they wanted to know and because we have not provided a safe
space for them to discuss these issues openly. Where do they go once again, *. And
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:59
			thirdly, by accident, the pop up ads misspelling one word and the like therefore parents and
educationists, we should be on the top of the game of raising awareness and proper education about
the harmful impacts of *. That's why in the same study, when young people were asked
whether the parents filter the internet or monitor their behavior online, 82.1% responded that there
was no filtering and the parents didn't monitor their online behavior whatsoever. And 86.2% said
that there was no restriction regarding
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:47
			Time access to technology and internet. On the other side, staff members thought the parents
probably are filtering their children's devices and putting some restrictions and policies in place.
They were mistaken. That's why we can never emphasize enough the importance of bringing that part of
the occation into our schools responding to the second question, how do young people feel about
viewing online sexually explicit media, and from here we may sense the danger 42% of young girls
42.8% of them said that viewing online * did not bother them at all. And 37.3% of boys
said that they were excited but when they were asked is viewing online * perceived to be
		
00:05:47 --> 00:06:35
			negative 76% of them agree or strongly agree to that fact that * is something negative. So
they know they know the * is harmful, but they're not properly guided. And finally, the
third question of the survey was, what should the role of schools been educating about lying
sexually explicit media, the majority of young people 62.3% agreed that schools should be teaching
about the harmful and negative impacts of * and all staff members with no exception were
in favor of schools addressing the issue of the potential harms of *. They just needed the
necessary training. That's it for today. Don't forget to download the entire study from the
