b'We\\u2019re trying something new. First we will podcast our show in it\\u2019s entirety then we\\u2019ll release just the guest interviews during the week. So please click POD to listen to Dr. Fitness and the Fat Guy learn all about how to protect your children from internet porn.

We were so fortunate to have Danielle Tiano and Karen Child in the\\nstudio this evening. They flew all the way from California to meet with\\nus. They are the creators of the Temptation of a Generation series of\\nbooks. While this may seem off topic for us, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy\\nare both parents who care deeply about protecting children from\\nunnecessary harm and that\'s exactly what these brilliant ladies do.

The Temptation of a Generation series is the first\\nchildren\'s series to tackle the tough issues today\'s kids face in the\\ninformation age. The series addresses pre-teen and adolescent issues such as\\nself-image, technology addiction, relationships and more. With beautifully detailed\\nillustrations, the books create a visual experience and teach important life\\nlessons that will serve children well into adulthood.

\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n

Both Danielle and Karen have a passion to protect, educate and entertain children\\nand they believe that the best way to do that is through the parents.

\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n

Their books begin by encouraging young readers to think about\\nwhat effect technology has on their lives, specifically the activities and\\nrelationships they miss out on by focusing on the Internet and other\\nelectronics. The first in the series, Temptation of a Generation, explains the\\nstages of Internet addiction and how the pornographic industry targets children\\nas young as 8-years old.

\\nMany families do not know how to open the forbidden lines of\\ncommunication\\nregarding sex and pornography, yet it needs to be addressed in every\\nhome\\u2026their\\nbooks are the tool to do so.\\xa0Some parents want to have \\u201cthe talk? but\\ndon\\u2019t know how; others are too busy or naive thinking that problems\\nwill never\\nfind their child.\\xa0After introducing the tough topic to your child,\\nDanielle and Karen provide questions to facilitate a discussion and a\\nworksheet to help develop Internet boundaries for your home.
