10 and playboy

Asked May 20, 2012, 07:32 PM — 34 Answers
Is 10 years old too young to find a playboy? His searches on the Internet get much more graphic that pb pictures? He stays with his mom, dad or his grandma at times. He knows what everything is. My boyfriend and I have been arguing for 2 wks. Please let me know your opinion.

Your question is a bit hard to understand. What do you mean by a playboy? Who is searching the internet for graphic pb pictures, the 10 year old? What are you and your bf arguing about? Is your bf looking at graphic pictures of children?

I have to say, reading your post, I don't know whether you're asking for advice on how to molest a child, or if you're asking if it's okay for a 10 year old to look at porn, if it's okay for you bf to look at child porn, or if this is your son and you're concerned. Only one of those scenarios, the last one, makes your question okay. The other two make me want to call the cops, and I would if I could.

A little clarification on what you're actually asking would be helpful. I won't judge until you come back and make clear what you're actually asking. I can tell you if this is as bad as it sounds based on what you wrote, you will not like the responses you get on this site. We do not condone child exploitation!

10 years old is about the average age when boys start to look at such pictures. it is a normal part of development. but his parents need to decide if they will allow him to continue looking at porn, or if they choose to make sure he does NOT look at porn. Is this child your boyfriends child? or your child?

And i am not sure how Alty got molestation from the OP.

10 is a bit young but not unusual. What many parents do, is first have the "birds and bees' talk to the child so they understand.
Next put a content blocker on the computers so that no adult material can be downloaded.

@ alty: I am concerned of my stepson looking up the pictures. My bf and I were arguing if he should buy a playboy and hide it. How in the heck does it sound as if I wanted to molest a child? Absolutely absurd. Highly offended. Please read questions before u respond to them. No one else accused me of such a thing. Please feel no need to respond. I was looking for an itteligent opinion about 10 yrs old and playboy, hence the topic.

@jenniepepsi: thanks for the comment about alty. Insane. Sounds like molestation is on their mind, not mine for gods sake. It is my boyfriends son.

@fr_chuck: we understand he is curious. We've had the talk. Somehow he already knew. We have blockers on the computer, but we recently saw the history on my BFs iPhone when we thought he was playing angry birds! He even had me download a game for him. 10 min later we saw the history...


Also we really don't know what's going on at his grandmas nor his moms. We told his mom last year and she scolded him in front of ( on the phone) his grandma! It was horrible and he was so embarrassed.

actually i did NOT say that alty was wrong. i said i didn't understand where she got the idea.

and if you are going to be rude to her, how do you expect to get answers from one of the best and most intelligent mothers on this site?


you are his fathers girlfriend. really you have no say in what is going on. so im not sure why you are even bothering. how old are you? you sound more concerned about him being embarrassed than about him getting what he NEEDS to hear. it sounds like his mother scolded him with good reason. he has already been told not to do this. he has been blocked, but he purposely goes around the blocks. and sneaks it into his fathers phone. that is not acceptable.

I apologize for offending anyone. I felt offended that someone would accuse me of such a thing. No she is not wrong.. I am 29, and my bf is the one who wanted to do it.. His father did sit him down and talk with him, I suppose he should again. I just asked for an opinion. This is the first time I have ever posted anything on any discussion board. I was not looking to be accused of molesting a child. So I will try to delete this all tomorrow and my account.
I do appreciate your first comment though thanks. I did not know which age was "normal".

its ok. just dont jump to conclusions :P the people here are very nice, and i am sure alty wasnt implying that YOU were sexually assaulting the child. It just crossed her mind that he may have been by someone.

there is nothing wrong with a 10 year old boy masturbating. having access to adult porn is the issue here. some parents have no problem with it. i personally dont feel its acceptable.

but if his father is ok with his son watching porn or seeing dirty pictures to masturbate, that is between him and his son. i would even say the same thing if it was my own biological son, and his father wanted him to have pictures to masturbate to. its a dad and son thing. just like the period talk is a mom and daughter thing.

masturbation is healthy. dont think that there is something wrong with him.

10 year old kids are curious about the human body and this is about the age that boys get interested in looking at stolen copies of Playboy, etc. Now in the internet era, it's easy for curious looking around to net some very graphic/pornographic (versus merely naked) pictures - so parental locks or filters on your computer and communication with the child are important because he can see a lot of things that are well beyond naked ladies.... and he may not understand what he sees.

I must disagree with Jenniepepsi, a father being OK with his 10 year old son "watching porn to masturbate" is NOT a father-son thing like the period-talk! A father-son talk usually involves changes happening a son's body, (erections, nocturnal emissions, etc.) and that it's normal to masturbate, and your general birds/bees talk ... but a dad encouraging his son to watch porn when he's 10? That's absurd.

I don't think Child Protective Services would agree with you Jennie. That is grounds to remove the child from the home.
