So he’s a typical 13 year old boy… and you’re worried??? First child? First time exposure to a teen boy??? This is so normal.

Quite normal behavior.

Maybe he might have questions.

Least it’s that and not porn lmao. My son was on his game system looking up stuff and apparently his dad was heading in and he just turned off the TV screen. Well dad went to watch TV n system was still on the porn my son was watching. Well his dad got a big surprise. They learn so much from the internet and from friends n school. You should have the talk w him if you haven’t already.

He’s 13! Let him look at the boobies mama! I know that’s hard, I have an almost 9 year old and I’m just holding my breathe.

But let him look at the boobies!:joy:

That being said, maybe talk to him about it. There’s some weird shit out there he could stumble upon and unwittingly traumatize himself with. That would be my biggest concern.

TikTok is the new Playboy…it’s normal

FYI you can’t see the messages sent or received on Snapchat unless they are saved. It’s designed to disappear.

He’s 13 … 13 year Olds want to see boobs. They are changing, things are happening and I’m sure the fact you caught him is horror enough for him.

Let it go, he’s going to. This has to be a joke hun.

Nothing lol, I caught my 3 sons earlier than that. They’re going to find a way no matter what you do lol. Talk to them about protecting themselves when the time comes but other than that. Brace yourself lol

As a previously 13 year old boy I’d just like to say thank you for not freaking out.

If you want to talk to him just do it. Head on but casual like you’re having a conversation.

This behavior is 100 percent natural for his age! The key is to continue to have conversations that media depicted sexual acts are not reality and the women he sees are not an accurate depiction of what real life women look like or behave!By the way he can delete his browser history at anytime and pornhub doesn’t require any sort of account to access it.

I was told that every archievement begins with a decision to try, ignorance destroy so many opportunities, I’m a victim but I was convinced by the right person thanks to you Mrs Lisa jennifer

I ignored it. Hes a teenage boy and as long as it wasn’t perverted stuff it saved me finding his playboy mags under the bed lol.
Its perfectly normal

He is older though… and probably going through puberty so it sounds kinda normal for him. Maybe just have the talk about internet safety and maybe the sex talk lol mine are small still I’m not ready for all that

Sounds like you have a completely normal 13 year old boy. If you talk to him let him know that it is normal and you’re not upset with him for looking at it (he can’t control every TikTok that comes on his “For you feed”) Let him know that the girls doing half naked TikTok’s are attention fiends and that you hope he sets a higher standard for himself when he dates a girl.

Listen, my son accidentally uploaded his porn to the living room TV on movie night, in front of everyone. Once I was done laughing, which took a while, and stopped his siblings from ragging on him, I sat him down and talked to him. I explained that it’s a normal part of growing up and nothing to be ashamed of. Let’s just make sure you don’t accidentally cast it to the family TV please​:rofl::rofl::rofl:

I have been hearing about cryptocurrency I never know how it works until I came across Mrs lisa jennifer trades and She makes me understand how it works, since then I’ve been investing in her platform and i have being making massive profits that’s why I decided to tell you, invest with the right manager today.

He is 13, leave him alone!

He sounds like a normal 13 year old boy… but I’d definitely have a conversation about realistic expectations and how what he sees on social media isn’t necessarily what you get in real life. And a conversation on the importance of how to treat girls and the importance or respecting their bodies as well as his…

If you try to make him stop, he’ll get better at hiding things from you. Have an ongoing conversation about the way sexual content can affect his brain, how to separate it from reality, and how to remain respectful to the women he may interact with in the future. You’re doing great, mom.

Take a deep breath, and try to relax. This kind of behavior is normal and he is curious. Ask him open ended questions where he can’t give one word answers.

Start the questions out by saying something like “hey, I want to talk to you about TikTok. What were you looking for when you were looking at those videos of naked women? What did you think you were going to find? When did you start looking at them? How would you have come to me and explained what you were doing on you town? You are doing what every other boy your age has done and it’s okay to be curious. I want you to feel okay that it is okay to ask me questions you might have.

What is the difference between this and teenage boys collecting porn mags back in the day?

Normal behavior for having a pre teen to teen son.

I see a lot of people saying he’s just a teen boy. To me it’s troubling when this is the image that teens have of women and it sexualizes women in unhealthy ways.

Do some research in approaching teens about sex and how to have conversations with kids about sex. It’s not a far reach to porn and hard core porn which will have an unhealthy impact on views of sex. Teens and porn are HUGE problems.

Have the talk and good luck mom

Idk, I’ve been very open with my teenage boy and in return he’s been open with me. My job is sexual health and I would rather he come to me or whatnot. He’s even told me he watched porn… It’s very normal for his age… his dad started to give him the sex talk he said it was awkward and he stopped him and came to me about the sex talk… :woman_shrugging:t2: let him be.

If the women are on tik tok half naked it’s like seeing them at the beach in swimsuits… that’s how I see it but TikTok I think has a lot of sexual content and is like Snapchat in the trying to get guys attention…

Honestly I’d have a sit down about why those videos aren’t appropriate, talk about sexualization, unrealistic expectation etc. Normal or not 30 years ago children weren’t exposed to THIS much nudity etc everywhere. Don’t get him in trouble, just have an honest discussion.

It’s very normal. He’s 13. I honestly wouldn’t say anything to him. He’s at the age of curiosity. If you confront him, you might embarrass him and he will also do a better job at hiding it from you. Just keep an eye on it

He’s 13. That’s normal. I have 20 & 14 year old sons. You need a parental control app that shows you what he’s watching w/o messing with the phone in his possession. But just so you know, eventually, he’s going to cross that nudity line…. How you react is going to set the tone for his sexual health, his mentality toward women, feelings about himself over why his body responds to things that make you upset…. In other words, don’t be a prude & mess the kid up. Maybe talk to some close male relatives & get their ideas on age appropriate exposure.
My eldest son, he started sneaking looking at naked women at 14/15. My call sign for that was him googling shit like “boobs, vagina, sex.” I didn’t say anything…. Bc that was normal…… I didn’t say anything until his friends started getting him to look up wilder stuff… then I had a conversation about how all that extra shit could jade him to the real thing…. Bc sex wasn’t like what he was watching IRL. Boys are easy to talk to…. You’ve just gotta keep your own freak out under control.

Lol he’s 13 so I think it’s just going to happen :sweat_smile:

Well 13 is a pretty normal age to start becoming curious. By talking to him about it will most likely embarrass the both of you. Just explain safe sex, have the “talk” with him but please do not make it out to be a huge deal that he was looking. I have 3 boys. My teens started taking that extra shower about 13. So I sound a funny sign on Amazon and hung it up in the bathroom about cleaning up all messes before leaving the bathroom. They understood and I didn’t have to say anything else.

If Dads in the picture, Dad should probably talk to him, “man to man”.

Other than that, just teach him about internet safety. Chances are if you flip about the issue, he’s just gonna learn to start hiding stuff.

I’m very open and honest with my kids. My son new about sex and how babies were made since he first ever asked. We talk about the anatomy of the human bodies. Knowing what I was doing at his age (he’s 13 currently also) I know what he’s doing or thinking about doing. Unless he’s out there having unprotected sex, I don’t see a need to discuss how he chooses or when he chooses to diddle himself. I think porn gets a real bad reputation, but honestly I’d rather him in his room doing his thing then out taking risks at his age. Children are naturally curious and that includes exploring their own bodies and what they do. I say let the kid live and let it go.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news…but he probably watches porn too🤷🏼‍♀️

Seriously normal behavior he’s 13, I’d suggest having the safe sex talk and safe masturbation talk. This isn’t something to feel ashamed of

Its literally boobs. Why do we sexualise everything… that’s the issue. Everyone losing their minds because someone has their titties out :roll_eyes:

i’d say that’s pretty normal and there is no need to shame him. i wouldn’t say anything about it tbh

Okay I don’t have a son but I have a little brother if that’s just as good lol (He’s 20 now). I feel like it’s pretty normal for boys to start doing that at that age. My parents found things on his phone and then shared with me what they found (I think initially they were a little shocked lol) but none of us approached him about it to be honest. We didn’t want him to feel weird or anything and it’s not like he was going out and doing the deed or other things. Yes we really know that because he never left the house outside of school (by his choice). But idk. If it’s the only thing he’s doing. I’d leave him alone.

I had a talk with my son on the importance of respecting a woman’s body and choices.

I wanted him to understand that just because he may see something on the internet doesn’t mean all women will be the same way or as comfortable showing the same amount of skin.

I talked to him about never being rude or saying overly sexual things to women in any capacity.

He was going to be curious no matter what, I just took what steps I felt I needed to take.

Then I put a parental block on the wifi for porn sites. Just. In. Case. :sweat_smile: not ready for that discovery yet.

He’s a normal 13 year old boy going through puberty. Me personally, I would leave it alone. :woman_shrugging:t4: It could be worse. He could be out there having sex. Instead your probably have to buy more lotion and you’ll find crusty socks around his room but still normal. Maybe if there’s a man/men in your life you should talk to them and they can give you some insight.

I think this is a good time to create that trust with him that he can trust to come with you and ask questions. So instead of flipping I would approach it carefully. Simply say " I saw on your TikTok your curious about women. Are their any questions I can answer for you? No questions are off limits and you won’t get in trouble for any questions or conversations we have about sex. If you feel more comfortable talking with your dad, that is also fine. Those women aren’t realistic, and real women have more respect for themselves than to be half naked on things like this so just keep that in mind. Remind him of the legal trouble he can be in by sending or receiving pictures (I’d look it up for your state and the punishments by law) that aren’t appropriate so he knows the legal trouble. But remind him several times it’s something in your house he won’t be punished for if he has questions or needs to confide in someone.

That would be my approach with my son when he’s older.

I always want him to be comfortable to come to me, have conversations. Even if he needs to text about it instead of face to face, I want him to get good advice and information and not from his friends.

Normal curiosity for a boy that age

Imo I think OP is going overboard and controlling. He’s a teenage boy, this is normal. Even for teenage girls this is normal. Let the boy alone. You are going to end up ruining your relationship with him and push him away. The more you try to control him the more he’ll do it behind your back.

No shame, the effects linger in to adult hood. But definitely keep up the talks about safety and let him know that these materials should not affect what he thinks a woman should look like or how a woman should behave in a relationship. When young men are exposed to these materials I think the biggest danger is that in their adult relationships there can become an expectation that this is how women should be leading to dissatisfaction or preferences for materials over actual people. At 13 it’s reasonable to be uncomfortable with it, but it does require a delicate approach with facts and not emotion.

I’m 23, and simply because I follow a page that post funny weed memes, I occasionally get to see stuff like this, or women showing off as well.

& it sucks, but most influencers try to keep up with “todays” trends, which can be booty shorts and a stupid dance.

You scroll through your own TikTok, do you see any of this stuff randomly?

I kinda just told my kids that sometimes adult content online can give them the wrong expectations about in person experiences or make them feel intimidated or insecure about performance or what’s expected of them as well, i was speaking regarding porn mostly. And also expressed those things are usually more meaningful when experienced in person for the first time especially. And gave the deets on laws about child porn and sexting/nudes etc :woman_shrugging:t4: hopefully they make smart responsible choices with the information i gave them. I have some controls to block adult content but teens will always find a way around anything if they want to. Cant control their every move.

My 16 year old step son looked up “big booty b****es twerking” I was shocked at how those girls can move their bootys… but boys will be boys… be careful doing laundry… his did NOT blow his nose in a sock or on a shirt… trust me on that one :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

I look at half naked women and them dance and such on tik tok lol it amazes me how some women are so beautiful and can move like that. Although he’s looking at that you gotta teach him to respect a woman as well so when he does get a girlfriend because that’s gonna happen in a year or so wether you like it or not he will be able to treat her with respect. Just relax some. When boys go thru puberty they have those strong urges, it goes away over time.
