Protect your children from harmful and inappropriate content
Age-inappropriate content seen by children has a seriously negative impact on their emotional well-being, attitude, and behaviour. Whether you, as a parent or guardian, are comfortable with all things digital or lack comfort and familiarity with technology, the reality is that the digital age is here to stay and it is therefore your responsibility to ensure that the children under your care are not exposed to age-inappropriate content.
Young people can send, receive and download nudes using their phones and tablets, and can share them across any app or site, as well as across devices using offline services like Bluetooth. However, they are often unaware of the impact sending, sharing or receiving nude images can have on them and their attitudes towards sex and relationships. Not only exposure to pornography at a young age can lead to poor mental health, sexism, objectification, and sexual violence, but also may intensify the risk of being blackmailed or bullied, experiencing online sexual harassment and losing control of the image.

Unfortunately, law in this area is still relatively undeveloped and government’s efforts to protect children from exposure to inappropriate content do not keep pace with the technological advancements, which have altered the landscape for the circulation and consumption of pornography. This means that using preventative, monitoring software and educating your child on the risks of inappropriate, adult content online should be your go-to plan for Internet safety.
With the average age of first exposure to pornography being 13 years of age, you wouldn’t risk your child’s safety, right? Bosco, the AI-powered parenting app that predicts and prevents threats to children, features inappropriate content monitoring which immediately alerts the parents when inappropriate content is detected in a child’s device. This includes nude pictures taken by themselves, downloaded from the Internet or received by others. Bosco is designed with both children and concerned parents in mind, giving children the freedom to thrive and develop their independence and parents the help to safeguard their children from accessing inappropriate content.
As your child begins to explore different online environments and porn is becoming more and more popular, it’s important to proactively protect your child from age-inappropriate content. Bosco is more than just another parental control app as it prioritises child safety over child control. Download the app today and get alerts when there’s activity that could indicate that your child is consuming pornographic material.
