my 13 year old son is just entering the "always thinking about sex"
My 13 year old son is just entering the "always thinking about sex" stage in his life. While I am concerned about this stage, what concerns me most is his sexual thoughts about young children. He knows these thought are inappropriate, and wants to stop. How can I help him. How much time should I give him before we seek professional help?
Thank you for your response. How I found out - he told me. This in not unusal as he tells me everything. We have a very open communication relationship. I have told him he needs to think about other things and keep active. While I have tried not to over react, I am sure he can sense my worry. He said he would never do anything, but thinks about them. I know he is stressed about these thoughts too.

I'm not sure if it is a matter of "how much time" you should or shouldn't give him, but rather, how worried is he about acting on his urges? And how much he is suffering as a result of these thoughts? Furthermore, and just out of curiosity, how did you find out about his sexual thoughts about children?
