Interrupting the Cycle Violence through Self Defense. Research proves that empowerment self-defense programs work. Participants are less fearful, more aware of their boundaries, and are able to speak up sooner when faced with manipulative or threatening situations. Furthermore, for those who have experienced trauma in the past, evidence shows that empowerment self-defense training can interrupt the cycle of violence and decrease the likelihood of a future assault.

    Pornography Exposure in the Sixth Grade in Beaverton, Oregon - What's Happening and What Can be Done?

    An 11-year-old in the Beaverton School District in Oregon was exposed to pornography during science class at school. You KNOW if it’s happening in one middle school, it’s happening in many, if not most. This episode is a conversation with the student’s mother. We hear what happened and how the school and school district have responded – spoiler alert – or have NOT responded. We talk about specific ways to address pornography with children. We discuss the policies, procedures and codes as they are written on the school and school district websites. If the rules were working, the child who brought the pornographic website into the classroom on their phone would not have had their phone hidden in the pencil case. The school district claims to be following protocol. If so, why, two days after this incident, is the same phone back in the classroom? “Increased vigilance” is clearly not working. I believe the school, school district, families and the community care about the safety of all the children. I also believe our community needs better training about how to handle and talk about pornography with middle schoolers, and let’s add in elementary and high schoolers while we are at it. The landscape is changing. We need to keep up. Pretending it’s not happening, denial, or dismissing it as simply “inappropriate conduct” means the issue is not being dealt with head-on. Pushing this under the rug is not the answer. Again, the landscape is changing, and all of us who care about kids' safety need to keep up.  Important Links for Listeners: Books and Articles: Sweden’s Answer - article Book: Good Pictures, Bad Pictures UNICEF Article: Protection of Children from the Harmful Impacts of Pornography The Atlantic, Article: What Porn Taught a Generation of Women Article by the American Academy of Pediatrics: Talking to Your Child About Online Pornography Exposure Book: “Getting Off: One Woman’s Journey Through Sex and Porn Addiction Film: Childhood 2.0   Connections: Connect about classes regarding parental protocols and cellphone safety Connect with Silvia Additional Resources: National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-4673 National Association of Adult Survivors of Child Abuse
