So some of you guys are parents to little boys(and even those of us who aren’t). I need your take on something.
Say you have a son, grade school age. You’re cleanining up in his room and find a nudie magazine. How do you proceed? Do you take it and tell hi
m its inappropriate? Do you let him keep it? What would you tell him after you found it?
I need answers! Lol. Let me know what you’d do in this situation.
I already got a few real life answers. I’d just like to hear(read) some other perspectives.
Hm. I’d take the magazine and ask where he got it from. I wouldn’t really make a big deal about it, except to suggest what would happen if I found another one.
If it was a female, I’d probably do the same thing.
Interesting male perspective. . .
i would definetly have a laugh to myself about it. I think it’s a normal part of being a boy to be curious and to look. I wouldn’t fuss about it, and I probably wouldn’t even mention to him that I found it. But I would find some way to bring up sex and stuff to him in a way that he wouldn’t know that I found his “stash”.
I like that idea
Being the type of parent that I am, I would probably giggle. I’m not so strict like that. I would definitely have the talk with him. I would ask where he got it from and that would be about it. I mean I could fuss about it but what would it really help.
Agreed!
Ommmmm Depending on how old he is I would just pass along the info to his dad and let the man deal with it. I think the talk would need to go ahead and happen
Ok but assuming YOU had to handle it. . .
Ummmmmmm……I’m pretending I aint seen NO.THING. lol! I’m telling his dad, and letting him talk to him about it, since he probably understands the mind of a hormonal young boy much better than I EVER will. If *I* had to be the one to talk to him about it, I would try my best not to make him feel embarrassed, and there wouldn’t be any punishment. I would make it clear that i felt it was inappropriate for his age. I agree with Teresha that it may be time for the “talk”.
Oh, and from now one, he’s responsible for cleaning his own dang room. If you’re old enough to be playing hide and seek with nudie mags, you’re old enough to take care of your room, lol!
Lmao! He’s 11 and doesn’t clean like she’d like him to so she goes behind him and does it her way.
Also, his dad is stupid and his only response is “He’s a boy!” Smh
tricky situation! first, I wouldn’t want him to feel ashamed so no yelling or calling him pervert (which is what someone in my family did to their boy). It’s natural for children to be curious about these things, but I’d let him know that adult material is not appropriate for kids. Then I’d end with a conversation about what he saw, answer any questions. maybe it’s time for “the talk”
Kids these days are starting much earlier with the sex stuff. Its def time for the sex talk though
I am feeling lazy so rather than type out the same thing I will say that I agree fully with Teresha.
Lol thanks K
