Today, I spent three hours painstakingly installing and configuring some parental control software on my 11-year-old son's laptop after I caught him watching porn. Barely an hour after returning the laptop, I caught him watching yet more porn on it. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had to download a parental block so my dad would stop watching porn on my laptop. FML
Today, I had to create a new password for my computer. I had to do it to stop my father from watching porn on my computer. FML
Today, I borrowed my 23-year-old son's laptop. The sticky keyboard gave me a good idea of his browsing history. FML
Today, my son shaved his eyebrows. Two days ago, I caught my 10-year-old daughter watching porn. I'm totally winning at parenting. FML
Today, I finished installing remote access CCTV cameras around my house due to the high rate of burglaries around my neighborhood. I turn it on to see my teenage son rubbing one out on the couch. FML
Today, I came home, turned on my laptop, and turned the TV on mute so I could check my email. My mom came home an hour later, took a look at me on the couch, then the TV, and asked what on earth I was watching. I looked up from my laptop and realized it was porn. FML
Today, I was having computer problems, so I let my friend have remote access to fix them. We were video-chatting on Skype at the time, and so he thought it'd be hilarious to load hardcore porn in my browser the moment he saw my mom enter the room from behind me. I'm now grounded. FML
Today, I was babysitting my friend's 12-year-old son while his dad was having an emergency procedure at the hospital. I walked into the den to see if he wanted to go out to dinner, only to find him watching Pornhub on my iPad. FML
Today, I had to teach my son to use private browsing because his porn keeps appearing in the search history. It worked, it’s no longer in the history, but he has added his favourite videos as tabs on the favourites bar. Either he’s a bigger idiot than I thought or he’s doing it on purpose. FML
Today, I woke up to my wife yelling at my 11-year-old because she found porn on the laptop. Now I have to come clean and tell her it was me so I can get him off the hook. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Is it really necessary for an 11 year old to have his own personal laptop? And OP, unless he bought it himself, you have rights to take it away

#1, there are many things that could be done to stop him. Snap his computer in half. Turn off the Internet router. Stab him, light him on fire, and dump his body behind McDonalds. Or simply just take the computer away.

Maybe an 11 year old shouldn't even have a laptop.

Maybe you should read the 37 other comments saying the exact same thing.

Just take away the whole computer. If he needs it for school, watch him like a hawk. Ground him from the using the computer at all other than school needs. Lock the computer with a password he can't guess. While he's grounded, tell him why you have a problem with it. Get his dad, uncle, or grandpa to talk to him too.

If you don't like it that much, take the laptop away. But remember, he's an 11 year old boy, he's curious. It's normal.

Part of the normal development. why try to stop it. Rather take it as an oportunity to inform him about ****, sex, love the differenced the things in common and the way to (when he is old enough) participate in a safe manner. If you try to forbid it it ony encourages the curriosity

It's a game of wits. Start by blacklisting the entire .xxx domain. Next add any **** site that comes up on google. Then add sites to the black list as your son finds them. I give it 4 months before you have a **** free home. Just make sure you blacklist them from the router and not just his laptop. But remember the password for when you want to watch ****.

The problem is that you gave it to an eleven year-old. He's eleven.

Why does your 11 yr old even have/need a laptop?

Be a parent and take away his laptop. Or buy him a playboy...
