A third of children ‘have viewed net porn’
The National Centre for Technology and Education (NCTE) carried out an investigation into children’s online behaviour in conjunction with four Scandinavian countries.
It found that 80% of Irish children have access to the internet at home although only 12% said they used it every day, compared to 46% of children in Sweden. Almost one in five children have been invited to a face-to-face meeting by another internet user and 34% have viewed a violent website, either accidentally or on purpose.
