    My mum answered the the questions when they arose, and that was probably about 8 through to 10, its just information. Best not to have 1 converstaion but an ongoing conversation, let him go away and reflect a bit, come back if something bothers.confuses him. Better to do it early as much less awkward IMO. What you are describing is the playground, we had some whacky ideas and I was tryin to get into girls knickers from about 6, I didn’t know why, but that didn’t stop me trying, quite the 6yr old sex pest now I think about it… 😳

    Well, I remember a ‘you show me yours and I’ll show you mine’ exchange with a certain girl in a static caravan in Borth. 😳 I was probably 9 or 10 though, if that makes a difference.

    Even then I almost took her eye out.

    When I was 7 my first girlfriend flashed. I told her Mum.

    I think I was about 11/12 before I became ‘aware’ of girls as the opposite sex. I was too much into playing in the woods, abandoned buildings, riding my bike etc etc.

    I guess nowadays theres less of ^ hence the earlier(?) awareness to boys?

    Turns out they (he and his buds) were all chatting during a kids’ party yesterday… which obviously centred his attention on the boob.

    Was there pampas grass growing outside?

    dunno about that, i spent my childhood playing in the woods yet i had the whole sex chat including condoms, AIDs, homosexuality, difficult births etc sometime before my 7th birthday.

    i think you can learn about it young but when it comes down to it, until the girls you spend time with start developing sexually there’s little you can do as a young boy apart from bask in your extensive knowledge when it comes to the playground and other kids coming out with absolute rubbish cos their parents haven’t sat them down and told them the truth yet.

    sometime before my 7th birthday.

    Wow, okay I might be behind the times. I didn’t get the chat until I was maybe 11 or 12. 😯

    But then there were only 20 kids in our entire school and our TV was always on the blink – so maybe that explains why I didn’t get into girls until much later. Sounds unlikely, but it could be true.

    ahhh our school was much bigger, in fleet (listed currently in the UK’s top ten list of big spenders on sex toys) and my parent’s did their best to ensure i knew about the good and the bad in the world from a young age.

    at 8 i was told they had no problem with my trying drugs when i grew up as long as i ‘make and informed decision’ 😆 this conversation happened whilst pingu was on tv pissing on the floor cos he was too desperate to get to the toilet in time.

    I reckon that I was 10 when I received ‘the talk’. I remember it not making any sense and picking the rest up at school! Didn’t start being interested in girls until at least 13 possibly later….

    See, I don’t think he’s interested in girls, he’s just obsessed with boobs.

    That’s what’s holding me back from dishing out ‘the talk’. My worry is it would just cause more problems than it’s worth right now.

    Is it too early for the full-on sex education chat, or am I missing the moment?

    I don’t claim to be a perfect parent, or even an above average parent, but our method is openness and honesty. So, if son/daughter asks, or comes out with something that is wrong, we educate and correct as needed.

    Our first horror experience was when junior (aged 11) came out of school crying hysterically telling me I had to come in to see his teacher, and that someone’s dad was going to kill him. After consoling him that nothing in life is worth getting THAT upset about and reassuring him that no ones dad was going to be doing anything at all, I suggested it might be wise to tell me the whole story before I got to hear it third hand.

    Apparently he had said to a girl “I want to lick you mini”.

    Now, I’m of the Benny Hill/Carry On generation, so sexual innuendo and general immature tom foolery is the order of the day in our household, but we don’t use language like that, have never discussed a sex act like that, and certainly teach junior what is and isn’t appropriate, and how that changes depending on who we’re with and where we are.

    In the meeting I let his (very nice) female teacher repeat what was said (just to see her squirm – shoot me). It was obvious that our lad had been put up to it by another boy, and his teacher was a lovely lass and was happy to put it down to boys being boys (i.e. no further action) if the girls parents agreed, which they did. The most disappointing aspect of the whole sad affair was the girl he chose to say it to. Only the oikiest girl in the bloody year!

    To the OP, firstly sounds like ou did the right thing, secondly get it sorted ‘ollies’ is not an appropriate family jewels descriptive. Imagine he gets into bmx and someone tells him to do a no handed ollie…
    As for stories, a primary school teacher I know was saying about a lad getting busted for having p*rn on his phone. His explanation in front of the head and his parents was “well dad I copied it off your phone…”

    One day, I’ll tell him that!

    A day when, for example, he brings his first serious (and probably well endowed) girlfried to meet his folks!

    Do you have any better family jewel euphamisms I can filter into his consciousness then?

    allthegear, he knows that one. And, for weeks, he told everyone he saw that he had two nice testicles – and then ran off laughing.

    Ollies still seems pretty harmless…

    If he licks this mini on a frosty morning you could check if he’s been up to no good by checking his tongue. He might be able to disguise it by choosing the glass panoramic roof versions though so beware.

    Aren’t you supposed to rub his nose in it saying “who did this? who did this? Bad boy”….or something.

    I don’t recall ever having the birds and the bees conversation with my Dad…I found out myself that you grow babies in your Ollies.

    It is a mine field and I think you have to make the judgement call as and when you see fit. My eldest was nearly four when i had her brother she was very interested in the pregnancy bit but in her own words ‘didnt want to know how the bit from daddy got there yet’

    She did find out later on and decided to tell her then 5 year old brother everything she knew on the subject – the poor lad was distraught. He did get over it though

    Generally I have tried to be open with them as they’ve grown up, encouraging discussion of situations and relationships – acknowledging the fun that can be had but really trying to get them to consider respect for themselves and others.

    Its a very different world our children are growing up in – availabilty of information, social media and the changes in relationships (more single parents, openly gay people and different lifestyle choices), and the portrayal of sexuality in things such as music videos – all add up and can be a lot for kids to get their heads around.

    I find discussing things as they come up without overloading them with information (as he probably did to himself hence the tears) is best.

    Internet filters are good – but also keep an eye in the music channels they pick, full of bikinis and big bootys . . . Im sure he’ll find them soon enough 😀

    My daughter’s class (year 4 hence 8/9 year olds) had an introductory lesson on it at school this past term. The school also recommended a couple of books we could show them about body changes that will start happening before too long. The class was split into boys and girls for that bit – at the parents meeting a few days before, so we could see the video they were going to be shown and ask questions a parent asked whether they were too young, to be quite firmly told that if they wanted their child to sit it out they could, but they’d hear it from the others anyway. And very scarily, that at least one girl in that year group has started to show early signs of puberty already.

    My daughter’s friend is a second daughter, with an older sister, and hence already knew quite a bit about it, so it transpired. Having learnt that sex isn’t just for making babies, but also for fun, and also knowing that some men like other men (and lady-lady) – she put 2 and 2 together and was most disappointed to not find out exactly how gay people had sex 😯

    Not sure whether / when / how to broach that subject……..

    Go all misty eyed, and start reminiscing. Tell him he doesn’t know how lucky he is, back when you were a lad, there was no such thing as Google, and you had to find such things in magazines randomly found in hedges

    Maybe send him out on a sort of Treasure Hunt. See if he can come back with a soggy copy of Razzle
    It was Health & Efficiency when I were a lad. Now that was a magazine guaranteed to sow confusion in young and impressionable minds, when naked women are as smooth and featureless between the legs as a shop-window manakin… 😯
    The lingerie sections of mail-order catalogues were subject to hours of perusal… 😀

    I was going to say they’ve left that a bit late.

    But then.

    And very scarily, that at least one girl in that year group has started to show early signs of puberty already.

    I seem to recall the NHS quote puberty for girls as started ON AVERAGE (so there are cases outside this range) from 8 to 12, and lasting on average 4 years.

    This of course means you can have fully adult (in dictionary terms) girls in the same class as many boys (and some girls) who haven’t even started puberty. It’s one of the reasons some girls start gravitating towards much (comparatively) older boys. And of course you get kids almost a year apart in age in the same class, and when puberty gets going, a year is a long time.

    It was Health & Efficiency when I were a lad.

    My dad used to get that when he was stationed in the Middle East post WWII. He was an artist and naturist. Well, that’s his story anyway.

    LOL at this thread – will be putting Google on to safe search later tonight as my 9 year old has his mate popping round for tea tomorrow…..

    I never had the chat with my parents either. When I was about 21 my mum came out with the classic “Your dad never sat you down to talk about the birds and the bees….maybe he should, he might learn something…” 😯

    He probably has friends that have Internet access on their phones that parents wouldn’t even check. At least he is up front about it, all part of growing up, and unfortunately seems a lot younger nowadays. Sit down and watch Embarrassing Bodies with him.

    I can’t comment personally as I’ve never used it, but I got this from a fellow tech the other day. May be useful.

    Great answer for those non-techie parents that ask what to do about filtering:

    https://dns.norton.com/dnsweb/dnsForHome.do

    Basically 3 levels of filtering, just choose dns server to suit, nothing more complicated than router config.

    (Yes, client level is better or open dns accounts etc, but you know you’ll explain these at length and they will never use them. At least these are simple and will stop consoles etc- it’s an easy answer for us and a “better than nothing” answer for them)

    A friend of mine was nearly taken out by a bag of porn. He was cycling under a road bridge on the trans pennine way a car went over the bridge and someone hurled out a bag. It narrowly missed him and when he stopped to investigate he found it was full of videos

    Could have made for a puzzling crime scene if it had knocked him out
