Huge wake up call for me to put parental controls on Internet. Ds aged 7 has sneaked downstairs and got iPad and been looking at porn (accidentally) whilst googling innocent sex words.., dp is mortified and blames me for being open about sex and being naked around them. I'm hoping it's just a natural curiosity.
Obv all internet devices are now out of bounds and ds got the shock of his life when dp caught him.

I'm however anxious ds is some kind of sexual delinquent Sad

We were all curious at one stage, weren't we? it's just that nowadays children can access stuff quite easily, I think. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Make sure he knows he shouldn't be googling but to ask you questions, if you say you're open with them. And to not feel embarrassed about what he did, bless him!

Don't you have child settings on your computers? You need to get them on now or all kinds of innocent googles could result in disturbing images!

Don't make too much of a fuss about it....get him a book about the birds and the bees. He's obviously ready to learn about it all!
