Children as young as five are being exposed to online pornography, with some reporting addiction, Sky News has learned. Research by the charity Dignify shows the average age of first exposure is 12, with a third of children seeing it while still in primary school. Sky News has spoken to one woman who says early exposure to pornographic material led to addiction, depression and amounted to her having her childhood "taken away".
