- Sneha Sureshkumar

Porn addiction and teens suffering from it is increasing by the day. But as parents and guardians, we need to be able to spot signs of that addiction. Mumbai based psychologist Seema Hingorrany helps us understand the symptoms, and reverse them.

How It All Starts?

• Easy access to high-tech gadgets like I-pads and smartphones at a very early age.

• Living in a nuclear family makes supervision on the activities of the children difficult, specially where both parents are working.

• Teenage is also an age where kids go through hormonal changes, making them curious to know about things like sex and porn.

• The herd syndrome, where if a friend is surfing porn you are also doing it, is responsible too.
