Hi, need some advice...
My 12 year old son does not have a smartphone but all his friends do and they chat over Skype/Instagram, so I gave him permission to use my phone so he could talk to his friends.
Last night he was using my phone, when I took it off him I discovered he was involved in a conversation with 2 other boys from his school and they were taking about a girl....
without going into too much detail the short version is...the girl is a friend of Boy A but Boy B became quite offensive and was using obscene words to describe what Boy A may do to the girl.
This is a shock as I did not even know these boys would know these types of words, maybe I am too naive!
My son thankfully was not involved in saying anything obscene but he was in the conversation...
How do I handle this? I need him to know that him or any of his acquaintances MUST NOT disrespect women like this, no matter who she is.
