I don't have a 14-year-old boy, but if I did I think I'd have to be delusional to think he wasn't looking at porn.
You are one of my favorites on this forum so I say this with respect and caution: if you did have a 14-year old boy you wouldn't want a bunch of tech-savvy Apple weenies like us aiding to the delinquency of your minor.
While the history is difficult to retrieve, it is not impossible to motivated parent. I don't own any special tools or software. But I could get it.
Let me share a quick story about kids and phones. I used to own a chain of Halloween costume stores. Teenage girls for whatever reason like to hit the dressing rooms in groups. A group of teenaged boys held their phones, with cameras clicking away over the door of the dressing rooms. I physically took the phone from the boys and told them they could reclaim them with a parent or the police.
One parent came ready to fight. One came with an officer shouting I stole their phones. I too had made a report. The officer told them that he would review the pics and make a determination on who was in trouble. One phone had a top-less girl's photo. That's child pornography and the account holder is now in voilation of possession. The officer confiscated that phone in agreement with the parents so there was no chance of it being passed on. Or in the officer's words, distribution of child porn. He said that even though it could be deleted, it was there in data form.
To make a long story short (too late, right?) we should never offer solutions to someone, especially a child, on how to hide or feel confident he can surf for porn. You don't know what they will see, save or forward. It's dangerous.
