In all this porn-no-porn hullabaloo...
strangely, no one's talking about how easy access to porn is affecting 
kids and adolescents...It is a school teacher's worst nightmare come 
true when she sees a child in her class (going down in some cases to 
class 4 or 5 even) intent on watching porn on the cellphone - in most 
cases even without understanding what is happening. I don't even want to
 talk about how it affects teens and young adults. What happens to these
 children's minds? Or am I just fretting? Where parents are involved in 
the lives of their children, it's fine, they'll know how to deal with 
it, but what about the children who grow up with hardly any 
adult/parental influence? I'm not saying that banning has ever solved 
any problem, but to my mind, what it does is that it highlights an issue
 that needs to be looked at and dealt with.
