I think we may well need a definition of pornography. If you are talking about the fact that men and women have sexual relationships then I do agree that if people were more open and frank about such things instead of tales about gooseberry bushes and storks then children would have a healthier attitude and there wouldn't be the "dirty giggling".

I'm not sure about the one parent families bit. There may be more to it than that.

I've always been open and frank about things to my children. I don't class that as pornography. There's a bit of a difference between that and letting small children watch adults actually in the act. I think that may possibly be classed as abuse. There is also a sense of double standards with what Garinda was saying. In an educational situation it seems nonsensical to censor images.
