classmate discussing disgusting videos

[olivia8allthepies]

My 9 year old was asked in school today by another 9 year old whether she had seen a particular film. I later googled this and found it to be a viral internet pornographic clip involving eating excrement. boilk. aibu to do nothing about this and just realise that some kids are allowed to watch this type of stuff? or should alarm bells ring?

Was it 2 girls 1 cup?

Either way that's alarming. I found it horrific and I'm an adult. No 9 year old should be viewing stuff like that.

It could be that she has older siblings and has heard it been discussed but hasn't actually seen it.

But I'd definitely bring it to the schools attention.

hmm. what would the school do I wonder?

Does the child in question have older siblings? That's usually where this stuff comes from.

Internet safety is a major part of the computing curriculum in primary schools and I would definitely report it.

We had issues with children using social media a few years ago and posting inappropriate pictures and messages. They shouldn't even have been using the sites as they were under 13. The school did involve parents in that case as they had evidence of what had happened. Schools will take an interest in internet activity etc that happens outside school if it can affect children's safety and well-being.

I'd report factually what happened ie my dc was asked by child x whether they had seen such and such a film. Even if child x hasn't seen this film, it's a concern that it has been mentioned to them, possibly by an older sibling as others have suggested.
I'd guess a senior member of staff at the school would have a chat to child x. Even if nothing definite is found out, it would be worth a school logging the incident. Sometimes lots of "little" things can be put together to make a bigger picture.
