Father Kilcawley also suggested that
parents be aware of the apps their chil-
dren have access to on their phones.
Protect Young Eyes (protectyoungeyes.
com) is a good resource that reviews
all the popular apps kids are using
and their capability of accessing por-
nographic images.
"Most high school kids access por-
nography through Twitter or Tumblr
or other social media apps," he pointed
out.
Talking to kids about pornography is
a hard conversation to have, but a neces-
sary one, Father Kilcawley emphasized.
"I always encourage parents not to
be afraid of talking about it," he said.
"Most kids whose parents do talk to
them about it when they're young don't
want to see that."
The Lord will win this battle, he
added, and reassured parents that
they 'll be given the strength and
wisdom they need to have those tough
conversations.
"Be courageous about protecting
them and holding standards and bound-
aries for them so they don't fall into
those societal pitfalls," he said.
