I'm just speechless...there are blocks on these things for a damned reason. Although it was his friend's Xbox and I don't think it's stated how old his friend was...still...

A 13-year-old boy in Blackburn, England has pleaded guilty to raping his 8-year-old sister, claiming that he got the idea after watching porn via the Internet browser of his friend's Xbox 360.

The boy, whose name has not been released, told police he and his friend were watching porn and he "decided to try it out." He claims he chose his sister because she was small and...er stuff," according to the Lancashire Telegraph.

On Wednesday, he admitted in court to indecently assaulting the 8-year-old and inciting her to perform a sex act on him.

"This is going to completely destabilise this little girl's life," Fiona Elvines, of the Rape Crisis Charity, told the Telegraph. She said her organization saw a similar case in November.

“When children see porn, they have no context for what it is used for," she says.

Currently, parents are able to customize their children's access to the Internet on an Xbox.

According to Kotaku, a new bill in the U.K. proposes that Internet users must "opt-in" and prove they are 18 in order to access "pornography and other objectionable content."

It's not porn's fault. It's his fault.

Ok I guess I'll just take the blocks off here and let my 3yo grandson watch all the porn he wants! Perfect.

It's the parents fault for not using the parental control feature.

I didn't say that kids should be allowed to watch porn.

I can understand that.

I sort of agree with smoothcriminal... People are always quick to throw blame when they have been caught...

even if it were"porns" fault, what sick fuck makes a move on their baby sister? That right there says this kid has issues...

Kids should NOT be allowed to watch porn, but it doesnt make them rape siblings, or anyone else for that matter...

Parents shouldn't be parents if they can't control their kids' habits. Fuck outta here!

No one aspect of this is to blame.

I feel like he is kind of old to be playing the "I did it because I saw it on XBox" card. At 13 I knew
what was what about sex and consent and all that jazz. I never did crap like this. Maybe it was
because of how much I knew and how much my mom pushed early sexual education

Maybe, but more importantly parents are failing at educating their children about things they might be uncomfortable talking about.

It's not the same world previous generations grew up in - where one would find a smutty mag or a VHS tape hidden in a parent's drawer. Sex is literally around them 24 hours a day in one way or another.

It totally sucks, but kids need to be talked to about these things when they are young. My son is 8 years old and knows about strippers, porn, sexual assault, drugs, sexual imagery, misogyny, violence, etc. etc... We are constantly talking about what we see and I am lucky he (so far) feels comfortable asking about something he sees on his own and either doesn't understand or makes him feel uncomfortable.

I really wish he didn't have to know about any of these things...but no matter how hard I may try (and I really do try), he is and will continue to be exposed to the real world.

it's both.

.

Sorry I'm not 100% against porn, but there are a lot of people especially men who in the area of sex, never mature. I'm surprised at some people I know (in their 40s) who are and have learned their sexuality/sexual expression via porn.

.

I had a big issue with a friend of mine when I found out some stuff, and it's clear he views sex via porn, prostitutes(he has hired), strippers. He has no realistic view of sex and wonders why he can't have a good relationship. When you start pushing things you see in porno etc on your girlfriend and she breaks up with u and you don't get it....

.

After talking to him I realized this guy (a father) has from an early age had wrong exposures to sex/sexual ideals

That's the key, a lot of people don't get that, even from the best parents.

I didn't I had to learn as I went. I just happen to have parents who taught us to read and study and search info. That of course can be bad too

.

And every family, culture, part of the country or world is going to be different. So depends on how this kid is growing up,

Prince made a song called Sister...

Prince talked openly about how he learned his sexual expression and ideals from his mother and what she had around the house and such.

.

People don't like to talk about it, but we would be surprised to know that sometimes sexual experimenting does take place at various ages between siblings, cousins, friends

.

They did a remake of Flowers In the Attic. I totally prefer the original. For anyone not familiar, the family-parents are blood related, and have 4 kids, widowed wife has to go back to her rich family for forgiveness to be able to get her enheritance, in the remake the older brother and sister end up having a sexual relationship. In the original it was only hinted at or discouraged constantly from the grandmother.

.

When and how the understanding of what a sibling/cousin is I don't know.

I definitely understand. I knew about that stuff too at 8 but thank God I wasn't too influenced to try it out...

This is like blaming violence on Islam. There are millions of porn heads but most of them do not rape, they can barely ask a girl out.

this case isn't as cut in dry as a rape case. It's worse its sad and it opens the doors on a lot of stuff.

.

I'd like to hear more about this kid, this is a troubling story. This isn't an adult, this is still a kid, who should not have been exposed to porn. Hell I know adults who think what they see in porn they should try with their wives. And there are some twisted things in porn.

.

No, this is not just porn, but the boy, and so much other stuff we don't know of. My nephew is 11 and i don't know how he would react being exposed to porn at 11 12 or 13.

that guy has an evil amoral psychopath inside of him...

it is HIS fault

Something tells me the boy was molested, then he turned around and molested his sister. That's what I think happened.

Most kids? seriously, porno movies or an naked image? I have a problem with that

.

I mean if that many kids are seeing porno movies at that age, then parents are doing a horrible job, and no wonder so many people have fucked up ideals of sex.

.

I didn't see a porno movie till I was in my late teens

the first time I saw a magazine I was about 13:playboy penthouse hustler and those are usually just images of naked women, not sex acts

I was sorta thinking something some experimenting was done with him as well, even if it was his friends

I've said SEEN, I think you underestimate the sexual curiosity of pre-teens and early teenagers, call it buying a dirty magazine, call it persuading someone older to rent a movie for them, call it the Internet era, whatever...

if that 13 yo boy's (early teen) reaction after seeing porn was raping his 8 yo sister, then he has SEVERE ISSUES...

I don't get your bolding of SEEN.

.

I was a pre-teen / teen too so no I don't underestimate.

I'm just calling into question 12-14yr olds access to porno, and the adults who are allowing most kids to have seen porno. Which too me seeing a picture is very different than watching an actually sex act live or on a video.

.

I wonder has any kind of study been done on that. 12-14yr old girls too or just boys, all?

.

I do believe he probably has some other issues that allowed him to go there

I can see everyone's view of this in some ways. I agree this 'boy' has other issues but imo watching porn at this age (or younger) gives kids a horribly skewed perspective and desensitizes them to 'real' feelings. Which is why it is illegal to marry or have a sexual relationship with anyone underage...male or female. They don't have the capacity to comprehend that porn does not=reality and most of what they see is completely ridiciculous. Kids that grow up watching porn and don't learn (or are not taught) that this isn’t the way sex usually is in real life can end up with very dysfunctional attitudes about sex...as we see here in this story.

Porn doesn't cause anyone to rape.

This kid already had a fucked up mind to begin with...any one of a dozen things could have/would have triggerred his desire to act on his demons.

But it's far more attention-grabbing for the headline to make it seem as if merely watching porn at too early an age could cause a young teenager to rape a child.

I disagree because this case is certainly not the only one. I'm not certain how it is in the UK but America certainly has a rape culture...

[This case] is not an isolated incident. There have been numerous cases in recent years in which children acted out what they saw in pornography.

• November 2013: A different 13-year old UK boy pleaded guilty to raping ...r old girl when he was 10. A pornography addiction since age 9 was said to have played a significant role in his crimes.

• March 2013: Two boys aged 14 and 15 admitted to a British court that they were re-enacting scenes witnessed in violent online pornography when they beat, brutalized, then ra...r-old girl they had tied to a chair.

• March 2013: A UK report found that thousands of British children had committed sexual offenses. In all, 4,562 minors – some as young as five – committed 5,028 sexual offenses over a three year period from 2009-2012. Experts blamed “easy access to sexual material.”

• January 2012: Children’s aid and sex abuse organizations in Australia largely blamed 414 cases of children sexually abusing...r children on the explosion of pornography made accessible to children.

• August 2012: A 13-year-old Canadian boy pleaded guilty to repeatedly raping a 4-year-old boy who lived in his foster home. The boy said the idea came from watching “gay porn” on his foster parents’ home computer.

• April 2012: A child therapist reported a case of a 13-year-old boy who raped...old sister after developing a “complex fantasy world” warped by “two years of constant porn use.”

And I have to agree with this comment..."If what is seen has no impact on our actions, then all the advertising that's done is merely wasted dollars. Right? So which is it? We are or we are not influenced by the things we see and hear. Take your pick, but don't ask us to believe it works for some things (pushing products, for instance) and doesn't for others (pornography)."

Most kids have seen porn before there 13. I did, and so did many others i know. And this was the early 00's when i was growing up... porn is so easy to access now. You can see it on your phone! someone could be watching it at the gym, in their car, or while babysitting.
