my brother looks at porn


Question Posted Thursday February 28 2008, 10:15 pm

ok my brother is in 7th grade and he is very curious. he always trys to look at porn but my mom always catches him. So tonight i turned on my laptop and a bunch of porn videos with boobs and stuff came up. I guess my computer died before it could get off the website. I don't look at porn but i am 100% positive it was my brother. also a website was up and it was a video game website. and i dont play video games. So my question is, should i tell my mom or not? i am thinking i should just so she knows he hasn't stopped.

amanda & veronica:

we would say,don't tell your mom. its a guy thing to look at porn, and he's gonna find a way to look at it no matter what. pretty much all guys do it. telling your mom would only make a bigger deal out of it than it needs to be, and would really embarrass him. but if you catch him doing it on your laptop again, just ask him not to look at it on there, because you don't want things popping up.

Well, for a start, all boys look at porn. Its normal to be sexually interested, from whatever age that they're comfortable with. It's not like your brother is doing something horrendously terrible, or that he's the only one. I'm 15 and all my boy - friend people have been looking at the stuff since they were 12 or so. Also, your mother may not like him looking at it because its, well - to us girls - its crude and we can't see how anyone would like it, and also she might be worried he could become sexually active. Generally in teen years he's going to do that anyway, whether on your computer at home or round a friends, and you're not going to be able to stop it whatever you do :D. Also, watching it is NOT ILLEGAL. In some places, yes it may be. But worldwide, everyone does it. FURTHERMORE, I do have to add that in The US in most states (I live in the UK so it doesnt effect my friends), it is illegal to watch porn under the age of 18. If you live in the US you might want to consider that, too. In which case, it probably would be best to tell your mum.
Anyway back with the real answer:
Why do shops sell porn in magazines and such? Because its a normal thing to watch for men :). I think by telling your mum you'd just be getting him into trouble for something that he's not going to stop doing anyway. How close are you to your brother? You might also want to consider that before you tell on him. You could tell him that you know, but I wouldn't tell your mother just yet if I were you. He's just exploring, and everyone does it. If your mother does find out let her do it normally, I say, don't break the trust between your brother and him unless he starts internet dating or some such... :)
Faye.
