get your parents to talk to him about it, and stop listening to all these idiots trying to prove that they're right.

Hooflung's absolutely right. Porn destroys people's values, our ideals, our morals and our ability to live as God designed us. It is almost the ultimate evil.

What right does a 10 year old have to privacy on the internet? You guys are acting like this guy's bro is 15 or something.
What many of you appear to be saying is that this kid should be supervised so porn can be prevented... but once he has it it's totally OK for him to do whatever he wants?
Years ago, I built my 11 year old brother's PC. I also use it quite a bit myself, as I have a copy of Fedora on it. I told him a long time ago that the 'net is dangerous place and that anything on the computer will be mine to investigate as I will. One day I found an IRC window open, in which my brother was acting like a total dick (being racist, swearing like he would never dare do in RL, and generally saying some very nasty things). Had I found porn, I would have reacted in the same way. Actually, he may have porn on there, but I really don't even want to know.
I told him that I found some of his logs. I didn't comdemn him for being evil or anything, I just wanted to educate him. Had I found porn, I would have tried to tell him the pros and cons. I wish I had an older sibling to teach me what it would be like years down the road.
My parents are split. I'm much older than my sibling, but I'm in college so I can't always be home. I'm the closest thing he has to a dad, since we were moved around for a while. I don't see why this isn't my business.
Does he despise me for "snooping"? Hah. When he realized what I was talking about, he started to cry, and kept begging for my forgiveness. He didn't really say this, but he got really upset over thinking that what I saw might change my opinion of him. He promised never to do it again.
I know my brother better than anyone. I know he has a mean streak, because, regretfully, I'm the one who put it there. I wanna do my best to remove it, too.
Do any of you remember being 10 years old? Do you really think that a ten year old can evaluate the consequences of his actions?
Why don't we just let 5 year olds do whatever the hell they want? We wouldn't want to disturb their "natural" progress.
I'm not religious.

Dear oh dear, where have you been the last 10 years? Fact: millions of people die from AIDS every year, because us humans abuse our sexuality. Fact: porn cheapens sex, removes its intimacy and desensitizes the consumer.
If you don't believe me that porn is a problem then you have your eyes tightly shut and are desparately fighting the truth! Follow this link for some Stats

Jump into your brother's room and scream:
"P0RN IS BAD - P0RRRN is BAAD - P0RRRRNNN is BAAAAAAAAAAD !!!!!!!!!!!"
and smash your brother's PC in pieces.
It's not good for kids to be dragged along on their sexual development way faster than they're ready for, all to line the pockets of a pr0n site's owner.

So where are all the overseas people?? They need to chime in an explain how sex is viewed completely different outside of our borders (especially Europe). Being a world traveler and seeing this first hand, I find it amazing how people back here in the states get so worked up about porn.

Hey porn saved me from the gangs of the ghetto. I spent all my free time indoors instead of selling crack.
