Well if the box was open or not it is time to sit down and have a talk with your son. You should be glad that if he is doing anything he is headed in the right direction by having the condoms. You need to have the talk with him and explain things to him on how you feel about sex and the way it is at today's day in time! No matter what we say we can't stop our children from doing things behind our back's! Good Luck!

Put them back....
Then tell him that you found a box of condoms in his drawer and that you put them back where you found them.
He's way too young for sex, but either he's thinking responsibly or is planning on filling them with water and dropping them off the roof at halloween.
Seriously, at 12 a box of condoms in the drawer is a badge of honor.... it may still be 10 years before he needs to use one.

Sit down and talk to him, Hard to believe that there having sex this early. At least he's being safe. Now a days there are more teen parents then ever. In my town alone there it more the 275 teen mother and fathers.Tell him that he and you are not ready to be parents/grandparents and if he's going to have sex to continue using the condoms. Take im to a clinic as well and have him tested for any STD's in case he was indulging with out a condom and don't get mad when he or if he decides to talk to you, be supportive and remember that there is a lot of peer pressure now a days. Best Of Luck.

thank God he is smart enough to use condoms and then take a deep breath go for a walk and come home and sit down with him and calmly ask why he feels he needs to be having sex at his age. Maybe he isnt having sex just thinking about having sex and thats a cry for help. But also be prepard that hes going to be hurt that you were going through his drawers. Make sure you have a good reason for that. but dont stretch the truth. He will know your fishing for answers.

Be happy! Your son is growing up in a world that says two different things in the same breath! You say stop but his body says go! - his friends say go, too!
It sounds like you did a good job so far. He is making decisions that might not be what you wanted but are at least responsible and mature.
Time to talk some more. But, leave the condoms. He might need them.

They talk a lot about condoms in health class. He might have been embarrassed that he didn't know what they were and probably just wanted to experiment with them. Either way, talking about that stuff is a very sensitive subject. I would let the dad talk to him about it. Be completely truthful, don't try to hide the truth. The reason why I say let the dad do it, is because it always feels more comfortable to guys if they talk about this stuff with other guys, such as their fathers.

Talk to him, Tell him about sex, and the importance of waiting until your ready. I would take my son to the nursing home close to where i live. I would make him give his time, passing out ice and newspapers to the seniors.
I would tell him if you chose to play you have to get a job to be prepared unless it breaks and you become a daddy. If my son has a child while still in school, he will work to support it. a couple hours after school and all weekend.
If more parents made the boys stand up, there would be alot less daddy-less little babies.

That happend to a friend of ours, she found a box of condoms and ciggeretts in her sons night stand. Turns out it had been the guys who had owned it last. They had just bought it a garage store.
Good Luck.

Your son either has them because he was wondering about condoms, and got a pack to check them out, or because he needs them. In both cases he's thinking about safe sex, which is a positive thing.
Another thing is, there is no way to prevent teenagers from having sex if they want to. That said, you may want to have a chat with him - not mentioning the condoms though - and talk about being ready for sex, not doing it too early, respecting his partner, and doing it safely. If he's unsure about whether he really wants sex at that age, your words may sink in.

If you are not a single mom, have his father have a talk with him. If you are a single mom, be thankful he knows what they are and how to use them. If you are not comfortable with discussing the subject, have someone who is preferable a male.
At 12 your son is too young to be engaged in sex, to the point of the need of condoms. The talking, touching, and other sexual stimulation for males is the most that you son should be engaged in. This needs to be discussed. Don't put it off.
