At The OLLIE Foundation, we tackle uncomfortable topics to safeguard young people’s mental health. One such topic we are shining a light on this September is the growing evidence linking pornography addiction to suicidal ideation in teens.
Join us for a vital discussion with our experts:
- Dr. Kathy Weston a leading expert on parenting and parental engagement in children's lives and founder of Tooled Up Education
- Nathan Jones who is completing a doctorate specialising in the treatment of compulsive sexual behaviour disorder and sexual addiction.
- Anna Sarjantson is the founder of Screen-Safe, through which she is dedicated to helping parents, carers, schools, and professionals keep children safer in the digital world.
We will explore:
🔍 The neurobiological impact of pornography on the brain.
🔍 How harmful content is spread through algorithms.
🔍 The hidden dangers of acting out what young people see online.
🔍 The shame and isolation caused by pornography addiction.
This panel will offer:
✔️ Practical guidance on talking to young people about their experiences.
✔️ Tools for early intervention and support.
✔️ Insights into reducing isolation and preventing suicide.
We invite parents, educators, mental health professionals, and suicide prevention advocates to join us.
