Talk me down, caught 11 yo's youtube search history. He is looking up videos on sex and using the crude terms for things and also making complimentary comments on a few transgender women's makeup videos. I fear he watched anime sex and a few porn videos that got through filters. WWYD? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I am probably the dumbest parent on the planet but I am shocked he used the F word and "porn". I don't want him to feel punished but he has a newish ipad and he changed the password and removed me but we share e-mail so I could still see what he was up to. I just spoke with him, kindly, about safety, because he was commenting on some live streams, and he was white as a ghost. [ Reply | More ]

I talked with my brother about this b/c he shared that he had a really early intro to pornography as a kid in the 90s and he said it really messed with his head because of how violent, nonconsensual, and unrealistic most of the porn that circulates is. Commonsense Media is my go-to and they have a list of advice: https://www.commonsensemedia.org/sex-in-the-media/how-do-i-talk-to-my-kid-about-internet-porn. For counterprogramming about realistic and consensual intimacy, I would redirect the kid to scarleteen.com. They also put out a really good sex ed comic book called "Wait, what? A comic book guide to Relationships, Bodies, and Growing Up" [ Reply | More ]

He was white as a ghost because you discovered his secret age-appropriate behavior? You don't want him to feel punished. Please check your own feelings. [ Reply | More ]

I love the UB responses that try to shame me by quoting me back at myself. Reminds me of my abusive ex. That is one of his tactics as well. [ Reply | More ]

He’s already been “punished”. He had to hear that his mom saw what he was looking at. That’s enough for now. Make him give you the password to his iPad and if he locks you out again, the iPad is yours. He’s going to explore stuff he hears at school. I’m old and didn’t have computers. I didn’t understand why my peers thought “hoar” was such a cool naughty word to call people. I only had a dictionary. Maybe a male relative could talk with him if his dad isn’t around.

In my dc's school, kids were watching porn on their phones in 5th grade. You can't totally shield him from this. You need to have a number of conversations. [ Reply | More ]

in the words of the pta meeting about online porn presented by a guest speaker, it's inevitable. the question is - do you want child to learn about sex from porn (sex = porn) or have talks with them (sex = complicated and it doesn't look like porn). if kids think sex is the porn stuff they see, they think it is a normal part of the act to get creamed all over their face, blow jobs, etc... the presenter said one of the most deflating ways for them to view porn is to understand how the actresses are paid. there is an escalating dollar figure for each increasingly unpleasant act. there is good sex, and there is bad sex and we have to teach them the difference.
