I think it's just poorly written pseudo-legalese, and it's intended to mean that he will be unable to enjoy life in the future because of the psychological damage that poor is doing to him (unrealistic expectations and mental harm, et cetera).

While porn addiction and unrealistic ideas of beauty and sex are genuinely real things that happen, the way to prevent that is with frank, open discussions about sex and pornography, not trying to prevent your 14 year old from masturbating. I was a 14 year old boy at one point, and lemme tell you, nothing could stop me from masturbating. Nothing. It's just not going to happen. Kids will find ways to find porn, and if somehow we completely do away with it entirely (again, won't happen), they'll find new ways, and they'll read and write erotica or get into hentai or whatever. This woman is insane, Kansas is insane, and so are all the other states imposing this bullshit

Like you said, it's never going to stop, and if they destroy access to all the ones who comply with legal requirements then the only ones left available will be the sketchy ones that don't. I don't think that's where you want kids going, so just get the fuck out of the way and let the parents handle it.
