puberty/masterbation - Parenting Issues Message Board

Our son is 14 and has become very secretive and protective of his privacy, my wife thinks he's masterbating, I'm pretty sure he is. We're not quite sure if we should talk to him about it or not. My wife is very concerned and we're not sure how we should approach this matter. I think I need to talk to him on one hand but on the other hand I'm not sure either. Any one there that may have gone through this, I would appreciate some quidance. Thanks.

I agree. Give him his privacy.

Thanks, I feel the same way.

I feel the same. Maybe there would be less teenage pregnancy if parents (not you) would stop telling their kids that it is evil or abnormal.
