Should I trust my son?

I bet they are having sex right now. What a terrible parent!

I only have a baby, but I think its wise to find out what 'sex' means to him (like oral or actual). I wouldn't let them be alone in the bedroom together. And they shouldn't be kissing in front of you but probably when you're not around. I don't know if its so much about trust but more about hormones. Kids that age are just raging with sex hormones-they can't help experimenting. I guess the long and the short of it is, if the girl already has her period (and some 12 year olds do) then potentially she could get pregnant and that would be very, very bad. So I think you should be safe so that your son is not sorry. Look at it as you are both on the same side (that you don't want her to get pregnant) and maybe consider teaching him about condoms. Because, if you don't, someone else will and then he really won't share things with you. Educate him, while at the same time advise him to not have sex. But you don't want to be unapproachable if he does get her pregnant. You want him to be able to tell you, so don't use authority, but be realistic.

Oh it definitely changes the way you act, or at least it usually does. At age 12, I highly doubt they are having sex, but they might kiss a lot, which is fine. When I say it changes him, he'll most likely just start responding to you with "Yes, no, OK" rather than going into detail on things.

Doesn't that depend on what kind of role model you have been for him? How you have raised him? Does he come to you with his issues, his concerns, his dreams, his goals in life? Do you have discussions with him in which you honor his opinions, his views? Do you recognize that he is an individual with an independent mind who will go his own way...according to how his judgment has developed? Have you watched how his judgment has developed? Can you see whatever influence you have had on his judgment facilities? Have you and your son done things together? You ask if you can trust him but how well do you trust how you have raised him? That's where the real question of trust needs to be placed.

WTF. No. You shouldn't. If your son is 12 years old, already has a girlfriend, and is already kissing her, you should be worried. Don't let them hang out at each others houses when either parents aren't home. And you should refresh him on the rules of not having sex. It wouldn't be a bad thing to talk to the girls parents about your observations and have them watch over that too.

Yes i absolutely think you should trust him,, have faith in the way you raised him and give him some freedom,, if you try to stop it and he does love the girl he will rebel and still be with her just because he cant help his feelings for her,, just draw the line when it comes to closing bedroom doors and being home alone or anything like that,,

12 years old... nah.. don't trust him yet. just because he's still so young and is a little kid, hence, thinks like a little kid. he probably wouldn't know the difference between right and wrong and would think of "the moment" and just do what he wants. stick around the little couple or just talk to him and tell him not to do anything stupid. the last thing you need is a pregnant little girl walking around.

hes 12 he aint even sure what to do with his penis. i didnt know how to masterbate till 12 i highly doubt him and his gf even are slightly physical at the most hes grabbed her breast i have my high doubts that he has ever fingered her or gotten a hand job yet. if hes like anormal 12 year old he will think about it but be to scared to act on it dont worry trust him

they are young, they are going to have sex more than likely!, the best thing is, dont meddle too much and ask him questions!, cos think about it, the more a parent doesnt want a kid to do something, the more the kid will want to do it!, leave some condoms on his nightstand-or where you think he'll notice!, let her come over your house and get to know her, I wouldnt encourage him to do anything sexual but he more than likely wants to explore!, just leave him be dont ask too many questions, but let him have a little freedom, but set some boundries-basically dont let her stay over at night, if his bedroom door is shut, leave him alone

Do you think you can control him at that age? You are foolish...you can suggest

that if they have sexual relations to protect themselves. Now that is an Intelligent parent.

It is not a question of your trust. He's a free person...you are weird!

honestly, you need to really look at your son and decide what you think about this.

all boys are different. your son might be the innocent type, but he might not be.

you are his mother, so do what you think is best. dont turn a blind eye on problems, fix them, regardless of how challenging they might be,
