My son, 8, watched violent porn with his ‘addicted’ school pal at a sleepover – he’d wake screaming from the nightmares
Share:
MUM Meg Jones’ blood ran cold as her distressed son Dylan, eight, confided in her his biggest secret - on a recent sleepover he’d watched hours of violent, graphic porn with his best friend. Harrowingly, from a play den in the family living room while Meg slept, they also visited a chat room where a man exposed himself and asked them to do the same.

Until then Meg, 46, had been baffled why Dylan was suddenly suffering night terrors, waking up screaming and crying in the middle of the night. And now she’d been plunged into her very own nightmare. Alarmingly, this isn’t a rare, one-off incident - a report by the Children’s Commissioner for England Rachel de Souza found one in ten children have viewed pornography by the age of nine.

Just last month the Met Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner Vicki Evans also warned children as young as ten were regularly accessing 'a pick and mix of horrific content' online. However, as our investigation uncovers, there’s an even darker reality - with children as young as eight being exposed to pornography and groomed online by predatory men.

Meg, who lives near Ipswich with her husband Dan, 41, and their three children, Dylan, now 11, and his siblings, ten and six, still cries years on when she recounts their horrifying experience. Speaking exclusively to Fabulous, she says: “One night Dylan woke up screaming from a nightmare, saying he dreamt about someone pooing on him.
