Default How do I tell my son about the birds and the bees?

He’s 12 and will be 13 in a couple of months. We have a good relationship, but I just don’t know how to approach this. I sure he knows some stuff already. (We all thought we knew everything) Some of the reasons I haven’t told him yet …

1. I’m scared. Not sure of what… probably just the fact that he’s getting older.
2. Not sure how too go about it. Do I say penis, and vagina, or cock, and pussy? Do you mention oral, anal, or masturbation?
I need a pamphlet or something.
3. I don’t want him to tell his little brother or sister. Not a great reason, but it’s still there.


On a side note how old were you when you had the talk? Did it help?

Maybe you should talk to this guy. See what he figured out.

Seriously, never had the talk. My Dad knew that I knew enough, and he gave me a Playboy when I was 13.

Have him do a search on Google for the "I love Matt video". He'll be more receptive to learning about the birds and bees from a girl his own age.

Show him the movie "swingers." Its full of great advice that should have him getting laid in no time.

Nor a Playboy gift from Dad. In fact, everything I learned was from various friends and sex-ed classes.

Did he give you a pack of cigarettes when you turned 14?

my parents never had the talk with me, my dad threw in "dont have sex without a condom" really randomly once or twice but other than that nothing.
