What to do with your child watching porn?

Question by Robert R.: What to do with your child watching porn?
My mother recently passed away and since then I have been raising my 11 going on 12 year old sister. I don’t consider myself a strict parent at all, but I was on her computer today and found google searches for porn. I found it while using the HIstory option and found the porn searches. The problem is I think she might just be curious. The searches at first was just for “what is a penis?” or “what is a vagina?’ to other things. None of them though were anything like hardcore, bestiality or anything like that. I’ve been thinking of giving her the birds and the bees talk for a while now, especially since she turns 12 next week, but I’m worried. Part of the problem is that I don’t feel right calling her out on the porn because
1) I watch it too
2) It’s my sister
3) She really wasn’t looking on anything that bad.
Like I said just google searches, that started out as innocent questions but led too slightly riskier things. I also don’t feel right criticizing her about what she’s looking at because I personally don’t feel porn is anything bad. That’s part of the human body. I’m just worried if she’s anything like me because I watch it a lot and I know for a fact that if she wants to get it, it’s not going to be hard to get it even at her age.This is America after all. I just rather that she learns from me rather than a porno & does something she might regret. I want to be a responsible parent for her but giving the birds and the bees talk is hard when you’re siblings not father/daughter. What are your opinions?
By the way, no matter what I am going to put stricter settings on the computer.
