My 8 year old autistic son has come home from school making inappropriate sounds which I can only assume are being imitated from porn. He has told me a child in another class taught him in the playground and has been making him repeat it. I've told him it's inappropriate and he is not to repeat it but it's like an impulsion now and he has begun asking me why it's inappropriate. Not something I'm wanting to discuss with an 8 year old! I have emailed my son's teacher to explain the situation because I'm also concerned as to what this other child may have been exposed to.
I try very hard to ensure I know what my kids are watching etc. YouTube Is only to be played on open screens (computer or tv) where I can see them. They're not to be on computers or iPad with closed doors etc I ensure I'm supervising them the best I can to ensure they're not accidentally exposed to adult content and then this happens! I have no idea what to do from here. I'm so upset about it!

Make sure the other child is dealt with.
I would tell him what the sounds are in an age appropriate way before he is doing this everywhere and you have another issue to deal with. If he keeps doing it just tell him very firmly stop.
