I voted in favour of this document and its provision regarding more intensive regulation for the protection of minors in the digital world at two levels: by engaging the industry to assume its shared responsibility, and at educational and training level by preventing minors from accessing illegal content. Information on the internet inevitably has two effects on minors. On the one hand, the internet, as a knowledge source, has an educational function; on the other hand, it causes harm through illegal content that can have serious effects on children’s and teenagers’ development. Sexual content, encountered by a large percentage of minors, whether accidentally or intentionally, is of particular concern. Responsible growth of knowledge-based society is the principle that we should follow when it comes to the protection of children and teenagers in the virtual world. At the same time, particular attention should be paid to the closest environment for children, the family, and the responsibility that it has to raise responsible citizens. Education and prevention should start at family level. Therefore, in order to comprehensively combine prevention and legal, technical and educational measures, the Member States must implement the Safer Internet Programme as well as cooperate with teachers, parents and industry and public groups so that children are protected from the dangers of the digital world."@en1
