little dude turns 7 tomorrow
just got home from work and he was sitting in my nerd room watching YouTube - he likes to watch speedruns of Mario games, and there is this other YouTube guy who does lots of kid friendly Nintendo vids who he is a fan of too
anyway, me and my girl have been talking for ages about putting some proper parental controls on our various devices (since he can read, write and type now), or at least giving him bookmarks to an 'approved' list of YouTubers, but obviously we haven't actually got around to it yet because we're terrible people
so I go over to give him a hug and ask how school was, and he clicks the back button like a pro and disappears the vid he was watching
obviously that didn't fool me and I went right back to see he was watching a clip called 'Young Jailbait Ass'
haha, so I just say sorry buddy, I can't let you run wild on YouTube anymore, you'll have to go in the other room and watch TV with your sister or something. He started playing Mario Odyssey on the Switch...and I came back to look at the history
'girls bums' 'sex' 'bum bum girls' (I don't know if these are searches or video titles and I don't really want to lol) and...'little girl bums'
jfc
so I guess I will have a talk with him later and explain that it's not anything heinously wrong and I'm not mad, but it's not OK for young kids to look at that stuff etc. I'll make sure he knows he'll have his own bedroom and computer in future years to look at all the girls bums he wants...
ty for listening I don't think I had a point to make at all
