Teenagers
Viewing sexual or naked images of any person under the age of 18 is illegal and could lead to your arrest and being labelled a sex offender.  This can include pictures of your own girlfriend/boyfriend who are under the age of 18 years.

Entrapment
Police officers are free to commit a wide range of typical criminal acts whilst conducting controlled undercover operations.  Teenagers should be aware that having sexual conversations with other 18’s online, is illegal.  It is still illegal when they become 18 years or older. 

Filtering and Monitoring Software
The average age a child first sees pornography is between the ages of 9-11 years old.

Illegal and extreme porn is highly accessible on all of the main porn websites. 

Strong filters are available to put on individual or the whole families’ devices to avoid pornography appearing in the search results.  Monitoring software will also report on a person’s activity and control the download of apps.
