What this episode covers
Tiffany Herlin interviews clinical director Meredith Barney about the impact of pornography addiction on families, highlighting how it creates distance, isolation, and secrets within the family. The addiction contributes to shame, destroys trust, and makes building trust with teenagers more complex. Family therapy is recommended to address family system issues related to problematic pornography usage, helping parents evaluate their parenting role and beliefs about sex and pornography. Parents may experience feelings of betrayal, shame, and fear, and there is a lack of specialized parent support for dealing with problematic pornography usage by teens.
