Customer Reviews

Helped me talk to my teens about this issue

I was grateful for how this book gave me talking points and ideas for discussing this issue with my teenage children.

Please read and discuss this with your kids!

I have recommended this book to all my family members who have children at home. It is a great guide for discussion on this topic. The author gives a more thorough plan for what to do when exposed to porn than the usual "just turn off the computer". She points out the lies that porn is based on, and what the healthy truth is.

Good for those with friends who have problems with pornography

his book was excellent. I bought it because someone I love and care about has an addiction to pornography. It helped me understand the situation without exposing me to all sorts of dirty images or ideas. It gets right to the point and it offers hope to people who may be struggling with this problem. It has given me some good ideas about how to help my loved one and I am hopeful that after the read it they will have a great desire to change and more hope that they can successfully kick this habit.

Highly Recommended for Young Adults, Parents & Youth Leaders

This book provided a straight forward and clear assessment of a challenging topic. I work with many youth and found this to be a one of a kind resource - there is not much out there that tackles this issue for teens or young adults (without being inappropriate that is). I would highly recommend it to anyone who is needing a good understanding of this issue or who works with youth or has teens in the home.

BEST REFERENCE FOR YOUTH

It deals with the issue head-on, explaining why pornography is a problem and how it affects individuals, and what can be done to address the problem. The 12 suggestions for parents are particularly helpful.
