It's very normal for a kid his age to become more curious about sex. If you guys have an open relationship, I would try talking to him about it. Not too much though. Just let him know that porn does not depict sex as it truly is. Most of the women are faking it (or exaggerating) and some things that he will see are not alright to do without the woman's permission. Most boys learn all they know about sex from pron. My fiance even told me the other day that he would have never been comfortable with giving oral if it wasn't for seeing it in porn. he thought the idea of it was gross. So, that's a point for porn right there! Just try to keep an open mind on this. You don't want him to feel like he has to hide this from you.Good luck.

In my house there is a rule you can ask me anything you what with no judgment I will tell you the truth. I wont my kids to have the right information about sex not what their friend best guess is. My kid are well informed about.

It's normal for him to want to look. That doesn't mean that you should allow it. Porn at that age would be his first exposure to sex -- it would teach him all sorts of misconceptions that could affect real relationships with real women in the future. As a parent this is one of the things I would prohibit -- and mean it.

reader, anonymous, writes (23 March 2011): I'm going to judge purely upon the boys I've encountered and say yes, this is normal. But whilst this is very common for teenage/pre-teen boys, this does not mean it should be stood for. Watching straight or lesbian porn at a young age can seriously distort a boy's view of women and can easily lead him to objectify the opposite sex. If he's watching it on his computer, I'd personally place a safety filter. If it's on his phone and he does not have the dignity or intelligence to hide it, I'd ban him from his phone; just my opinion.
I hope this answers your question!

Of course it is, he's entering puberty. I'm willing to bet it has more to do with seeing an exposed breast, and less to do with uh, lets call it nuances of porn.
Buy him a couple Playboys, or something, and try to work up the courage to talk to him about the joys of puberty. Try not to freak out or make him feel as if he's done something wrong. It's a natural curiosity.

reader, anonymous, writes (23 March 2011): It is a little strange. I certainly expect any teenage boy looking at porn until they are atleast 14. But, i think its possible that your son has developed quite early, so he is watching porn.
Other reasons could include his friends from school telling him to watch it. Also, does he have any older brothers (or sisters) who couldve told him to go on for a laugh or who he is copying.
Finally, how many times does he view it. If its just the once, id say no need to be worried. Be worried if hes always on the computer or if you know hes viwed it several times.
