Teen Porn

Dear Palme,

I discovered my fiance looking at teen porn. He is 21, but I was seriously disturbed by this. I told him that if I ever saw such a thing again that I would leave him. I love him so much and this just seems so out of character as I have been with him for nearly 4 years. He was extremely apologetic and is afraid that i will leave him. I don't know what to think as I thought I knew him. He said that he never looked at that before and that he just downloaded a lot of porn on his computer and these were included. One of the videos was of an 11 year old girl. I told him that this was not normal and that he needed help. He said that he didn't realize that one of the videos was an 11 year old girl and that the porn girl looked 16, but he specifically was looking for teen sex. I am seriously disturbed by this and have no idea what to think or do about it. Please help.

Many men have a very strong sex drive, and it is difficult for them to control it. Looking at porn can actually be a way of avoiding sexual affairs and staying faithful.

Looking at, and/or saving, porn pictures of underage children is illegal in many countries and entails a large risk of criminal prosecution. The age of the child under which porn pictures are regarded as child pornography varies between different countries, 15, 17 and 18 are age limits which different countries use.
