Pornography

The day before, a 10-year-old boy told me that he had to change his school's email address password because his parents knew and could spy on his privacy. I told her I understood, but I warned her that school officials could also spy on everything she did on the Internet, even if they didn't share the password with them. And he said to me, "Quiet, I don't see those things.

Two days later, during a meeting, several people began to share their responsibility with the early entry of young people into pornography. This issue has many worried parents. Adolescents, on their devices and due to their natural curiosity, can reach inappropriate content, such as pornographic content. Parents are concerned that young people can get into pornography too early and create the wrong picture of sex. Apparently, in addition to following these contents, they use the possibilities offered by digitalisation itself for its creation and distribution.

Ona de Donesteche mentions an interesting analogy about mobiles and cars: Why do we need driver's license to take the car, but they give us the phone without any specific criteria?

Little by little we are acquiring ideas in society to improve the lives of children and adolescents: good treatment, architectural remodeling to make peoples more livable for children... These improvements take the form of increasing respect for children, influencing power relations between adults and children. However, due to the characteristics of the digital space, we still do not see a clear path to transform the digital reality, and for the moment we are creating bubbles for children, so that parents can control their contents through applications.

I am not clear on that path, I do not see the only path. All I am clear is that it has touched them to live this harsh reality and that talking to them is perhaps the best resource we have at our disposal.

The 'favorite' places

The other day I went to a place I hadn’t visited in a long time and I liked it so much. While I was there, I felt at ease and thought: this is my favorite place. Amulet, amulet, amulet; the word turns and turns on the way home. Curiosity led me to look for it in Elhuyar and it... [+]
