>It has been conclusively proven that pornography can be harmful to families and relationships.

Citation needed. I've seen studies which suggest that specific kinds of pornography (e.g. rape fantasy) can be damaging, but nothing to support a general statement with that kind of certainty.

>The second being that there would be a legal market for kidde porn? How could this help kids in any way?

How about if it lead to fewer kids being, you know, actually abused. Both by discouraging the production of new kiddie porn (because the market would already be flooded), and by giving those with unfortunate urges a safe outlet.
