“A disturbing and extremely dangerous scenario for all our children, it is time to stop the monsters who impose sexuality on children”. This is the alarm raised by Pro Vita & Family, with the campaign to counter the hyper-sexualization of minors in the media.
“The dangers for children – he underlined Jacob Coghe, spokesperson for Pro Vita & Famiglia – have increased exponentially due to the lockdown. In recent months, millions of young people and very young people have been forced to spend hours and hours in front of the computer and this has led to dramatic data. Just think that more than one in four children, between 11 and 16 years old, with a profile on a social network, experienced something shocking last year, but only 22% of them spoke to someone about it. There is therefore a need – continued Coghe – to act promptly on all fronts and we ask the Ministry for Economic Development to work to make effective the rule contained in the Justice decree which requires the installation of parental control by default on all devices on sale“.

Father Fortunato of Noto, president of the Meter Association, declared: “We are facing a very complex and transversal global phenomenon, so associations alone are not enough if there is no commitment from politics, law enforcement and institutions“. The campaign will continue throughout the month of September. Tomorrow a documentary film will be published on Meter's action against pedophilia, also to publicize the toll-free number 800 45 52 70, which aims to help and accompany children. In the coming weeks, other awareness-raising initiatives (both online and offline), in particular a poster campaign in Rome and Milan.
