Question
I would just like to know why do teens resort to pornography and what are the effects of pornography to teens. If you could please enumerate them. Thanks a lot.
Teens go to pornography because it's easy access to what they want. Sometimes getting out sexual feelings on your own or with someone else isn't always an option. Pornography is just a way to get out those feelings. The effects are 1)they get the feelings out. 2)Sometimes that's not always enough. It can lead to more serious stuff and people can start to get hurt. 3)It can make teens more sex-centered. As in, that's all they think about. And basically, it can ruin relationships with family, friends, and significant others.

I can answer things that have to do with any sort of question about religion. I am a Mormon and I have been through my entire life so if you ask me questions about that religion I can give you facts and I might be able to explain things a little better than people that aren't of that faith. If you have a question on whether or not something is okay to do I can look at it through my "Mormon eyes" or if you would like me to I can just look at it on a plain religious level. I will do my best to anwer your question. Please include you age with your question.
Experience
I have been a youth leader in my church since I was twelve. My neighborhood is very religious so I have gained knowledge from them as well.
