How has the internet created problems with children in the sense they are exposed to sex too early, among other things?

Some people seem to expect sex or other things in a relationship when in reality, that’s not what everyone wants. It starts to become more of an expectation rather than a preference when people start dating a partner and don’t even consider asexuality, abstinence, or even the fact that some people just aren’t ready for sex. And some people feel that having sex is how they show they’re worthwhile and feel like without it the other person won’t stay, however not everyone has this mutual expectation.

Also people can mistake small gestures or general actions and take it to mean something way more than it does in real life. So many people seem to listen to articles that define a person’s actions, or service ideas from watching people online, instead of considering that people are individuals and no one action will mean the same to every single person alive.
