How can you not know how to explain to him? You have a son, right? Being open and honest with children is the best way and it is great that your son asked you for information rather than just going out and talking about it with friends. You can teach him that sex comes with a lot of responsibility and maturity and that when he is ready, he will know. Good luck.

OK my daughter is 10 and we have already had that talk. I got a book that showed pictures about babies and I got a video called the miracle of birth. It says a lot. Plus to do the scare tactic I got a book from the library that showed pictures of people that had STDs you know the ones with the bad symptoms. But you need to be honest with your son and if he has any questions answer them.

Just explain the answers very straightforward. The last thing you want is for him to get his answers from his classmates, after all. If he has a question you honestly can't answer, find a book that can, or tell him you will find out and tell him. It might help to be very clinical about it, so you don't feel embarassed. But he's going to find out some way, and it may as well be from you.

Whatever question he asks just tell him the truth. If you don't he'll hear about it somewhere else and confront you. All children do that. I started asking my parents about sex around the same age and they told me the truth.. Thank God. You don't want to have to learn the hard way or grow up not knowing the truth.

If it's an issue of you not being comfortable then I would suggest taking him to a counselor our a physician. I would say it is important to be in there with him and let him know that you are open to talk to him, or at least support the fact that he wants to learn about it in a mature way. Good luck and I hope this helps.

Just tell him the truth, the exact physical things that happen. At 13 he can easily handle the truth.

Just tell him not to do it. He should be doing sex education soon anyway so he can find out all the infections he can catch and ways to prevent them then.

there are educational reference books in the library written ESPECIALLY for children of all ages.
