...playing with your...monkey???

I have to ask because my son is 13. Way more innocent than I was when I was 13

Anyhow, my sister-in-law teases me all the time that my son HAS to have been "mastering" by now....and I deny it. I can't see him doing that!!

Part of me thinks he doesn't even know about it.......then I feel that I am being blinded about him and his innocence.

I know that he is more of a loner, doesn't hang out with friends..so hasn't been involved in any kind of kissing situation.

Anyway....what was the age when you started? Thanks!

They start playing with it when they're in diapers and never stop.

Red face It's time to talk with him ~ girl!

Few if any are innocent at 13 these days. Boys and girls all seem to be more matured physically these days then when I was young, so you need to think this topic over carefully.

It’s time to worry. You probably should have a private talk with him and let him know how your thoughts on how girls feel about things, etc. It’s something that should come from mom and dad first before he finds out more and more from others. Boys are curious by nature and too bashful to ask questions about this topic of girls and themselves. I don’t know how much detail if any the public schools go into with their classes; in my time we didn’t have any class on the topic. Our gym teacher and coach wasn’t someone for the guys to go to for answers.

Unless you're having to cut down on food in order to be able to afford tissues or he's become a bedroom recluse then I wouldn't worry too much about it but I'm afraid you sweet little dear probably has jacked the beanstalk by now. We blokes don't stay innocent for long you know.

If he is a physically, mentally healthy 13 year old he is probably doing what comes naturally to the male adolescent species..Don't stress over it..

I wouldn't worry too much about it, like others said.
13 is young... I didn't discover it til I was 14, maybe 15.

I don't ever remember not playing with it. The first time anything "happened" I was 13 1/2. After that it was like, every day or twice a day for the next several years, lol.
