Why do I have two sites?

    When I log into my account, I see two WordPress sites. One is mine. The other, I’m assuming, is my son’s.

    How could this happen? From signing up using the same computer?

    I feel completely uncomfortable now, because I certainly did not intend for my child to read my blogs.

    How do I fix this?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    How could this happen? From signing up using the same computer?

    Yes, that could be the case. It could also be a using the same email address situation.

    Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account. You can create one gravatar for every username account that applies to all blogs registered under the same username account and email address.

    https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-notifications/

    There is a single email address that can be used on only one wordpress.COM username account and not on any others, regardless of how many blogs are registered under that username account.

    The wordpress.COM blog’s owner can change the relevant email address on their accounts page at https://wordpress.com/me/account at any time.

    Transferring a Blog to Another Username Account

    If you have a single username account and have registered two (or more) blogs that you do not want to be associated with each other any longer,

    log out of wordpress.com and register another username account using a different email address;
    invite the new username account https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/ to become a new Administrator http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator of the blog you want to transfer;
    transfer one (or more) of the blogs to the new username account.
