A psychotherapist has said that we should be talking to our children about sex and porn from the age of ten.

Dr Alberto Pellai is a researcher in public health at the medical school of Milan state university in Italy, and he has been speaking at the conference for international society for the prevention of child abuse and neglect.

Dr Pellai joined Pat this morning.

Pat began by asking Dr. Pellai if it is counterintuitive, that we should be talking to children as young as ten about these matters, because most of us would think we should preserve their innocence as long as we can.
