Courses that put you in control

Whether we like it or not, children as young as kindergarten learn about sex every day in our digital age. Advertising, music, TV, movies, and the Internet constantly bombard kids with a skewed version of sex and relationships.

Parents and educators can understandably feel helpless to act in this pervasive culture. But the truth is, they’re perfectly positioned to offer children alternative, healthy messages about sex that instill respect in themselves and others.

Young people need trusted adults to help them build resilience and resistance to hypersexualized media and porn. Our courses are best-practice toolkits that give parents and educators a science-backed framework in which to have gentle, safe conversations with kids about explicit content. And believe it or not, kids want you to have these conversations with them…even when they act like they don’t.

As a result, children can prepare for what to do when they see porn and know they can approach a safe adult to talk about it without “getting in trouble.”

Our organization wrote a book on sex education with a porn-critical lens, but we struggled with how to talk to children about porn. The Culture Reframed Porn-Critical Sex Ed Curriculum gave us all the answers. It’s a clear, evidence-based, step-by-step roadmap to quality sex education … this is the first exhaustive tool to teach youth about the harms of pornography.
