The first in the Temptation of a Generation series, this book helps parents and kids navigate the challenges of the Internet and electronic age. Temptation of a Generation educates children and parents about the dangers of Internet pornography. It is designed as a tool for communication between parents, educators and the kids who are at risk for exposure to pornography. Most pornography will find children before they search for it. Research says that parents who talk to their children about pornography reduce their child's risk of becoming addicted to it. The book tells the story about Timmy, a shy boy who loves to play and who is curious about the world. But when he stumbles innocently onto Internet pornography his life changes in just one look. He realizes that he needs help and ends up finding it in an unlikely friend who teaches him the right way to click and about what really makes him tick. His experience teaches him about just how strong he can be! The book helps parents start that difficult but necessary conversation about pornography.

This book makes The Boys to Men transition,
By
This review is from: Temptation of a Generation (Paperback)
Wow, I never thought I would ever read a book that would cover such a topic in a non-threatning way. i think this is one that young boys should read and I would love to get feedback on how it helps girls. Back in the day, you found adult magazines under the bed. Today, with the Internet you never know unless your monitoring them.One thing a parent can do to curb Internet surfing is to keep the computer out of the bedroom. The book carefully, yet directly covers what parents know could be going on but are afraid or uncertain in how to bring it up. I actually asked my 19 year old to read it and he did. Getting No complaint from him is amazing. He did not say it was "dumb" or "retarded" and that tells me that it struck a cord and he liked it. Dianelle has just made a parents life a bit easier. I look forward to seeing more from her as there are endless topics for her to write on.

A must read for parents with younger children!,
This review is from: Temptation of a Generation (Paperback)
After having the fortune of learning about this book through a friend and picking up a copy, I would highly recommend this to any parent of a child 7 - 8 years and up. Temptation of a Generation is a great resource for helping parents broach the very difficult subject of internet porn with their children. The book is written in a cleverly worded rhyming style and beautifully illustrated. The topics that are discussed and morals that are taught are incredibly pertinent today and yet very rarely discussed by parents with their children. Temptation of a Generation is a wonderful tool that will facilitate parents and children to openly discuss a dangerous and somewhat taboo subject in an open and friendly atmosphere.

This review is from: Temptation of a Generation (Paperback)
What a wonderful way to educate and empower children about the dangers that lurk online! It is an excellent tool for improving your tweens awareness of the potential dangers on the internet, as well as an excellent resource to help rebuild self-esteem in those who have been affected by internet pornography addiction. It's practical and provides information to better equip children to make smarter choices when faced with uncomfortable situations online, giving kids the confidence they need to be able to rely on themselves when "tempted!"
