Fight the New Drug recognizes that pornography affects today's youth in unique and troubling ways. That's why we've partnered with Pinwheel!
Pinwheel re-imagines the use of technology to help kids become responsible digital natives by designing a phone with the help of licensed therapists that promotes healthy device use.
As Seen In
You Shouldn't Have To Settle On Your Child's Safety
As they get older, kids need independence, and parents need the peace of mind that comes with knowing their kids are safe. Smartphones that have access to the internet also have access to unlimited adult content, habit-forming games, and social platforms-and even online child predators.
But what if parents didn't have to choose between online safety and being able to communicate remotely with their kid?
Smartphones Rule The Porn Scene
The majority of kids are exposed to porn by age 13, with some exposed as young as seven. [1] In fact, young adults today are all presented with the issue of porn. According to a nationally representative survey of teens, 84.4% of 14 to 18-year-old boys and 57% of 14 to 18-year-old girls have viewed pornography[2], and many are watching it on devices they have with them 24 hours a day on their person.
Give your kids the smartphone they want without the access to explicit material that's well worth avoiding.
