The awful stories about child pornography

Child pornography has been going on for a very long time now. Not that people has not done anything to put an end to it, but it just seem to be unstoppable. If a site is closed down, immediately another site will be open again. How can we put an end to something where it is in a border less world like the internet?

Child pornography is something really disgraceful and it shouldn't be happening. The idea of some people getting really amused by child pornography is pretty insane. Many of this children who appears on this websites and home videos are often exploited and most of them end up being traumatized growing up. It will not reflect well on them and will just create a lot of unnecessary problem to them.

• Every second - $3,075.64 is being spent on pornography
• Every second - 28,258 Internet users are viewing pornography
• Every second - 372 Internet users are typing adult search terms into search engines
• Every 39 minutes: a new pornographic video is being created in the United States

Text and image enhancing each other will evoke different feeling towards the reader (Schirato & Yell 1996 ) . One very effective way to stop this is to create a lot awareness among the adults. This are the people who will understand and know what's right and what's wrong to do. By having mature images on brochures, and text together with it to further explain the images, i believe it will somehow get to the adult's heart and will do something about it.

Is everyone's responsible to stop child pornography. Is unethical and demoralizing. We would not want a world that is unsafe for our future children. Is entirely up to you. When the demand stops, the production will be stopped.
