Addictive Sexual Behavior

 

Addictive sexual behavior may be the single most common struggle among Christian teens.  With internet access and smart phones becoming universally available at yonger and younger ages, issues like porn and sexting are affecting almost every family.  Due to the progressive nature of addiction, the building block behaviors of fantasy, porn and masturbation often lead to more involved behaviors over a relativey short period of time.

Many Christian parents are aware of the issues, but are convinced their children would never be involved in such behaviors. In reality, more Christian teens than not are involved is these behaviors.  It is common for young people to struggle in silence, believing they are the only ones, especially if they have grown up in a family that does not talk about "such things."
