Hi please could you pop an Anonymous post on the page, really need some advice again and it’s a bit embarrassing.

My son is 14 and was diagnosed with Aspergers aged 10. In some ways he’s incredibly switched on and in others very naive. He has a small number of kids he hangs around with at school but doesn’t invite anyone over or go out to see them. He isn’t on or interested in social media at all (which I’m pleased about to be honest, one less mine field to navigate) He spends the vast majority of his spare time in his room. His computer time is limited otherwise he would be on it 24/7. At no point has he shown any interest in girls or boys. We bought him a new phone recently and the understanding we have with him is that internet activity will be monitored. Yesterday we found a lot of pornographic images (mostly girl-girl stuff) on it and when looking in his history he’s been looking at quite a lot more. He’s also been looking up images of some famous girls that I presume he likes. Obviously I know that most boys his age would be curious and want to explore stuff but some tips from other parents who have been in a similar situation would be most helpful. He’s our eldest and as there wasn’t easy internet access to this kind of stuff when we we were his age this is un charted territory for us! We tried talking to him about it but he completely shut down, I’m not sure which one of us was more mortified! Any ideas on how best to approach the subject or what to say/not say would be great thanks!
