What would you do if you found out your son has a STD at 14?

Let's say that you have a 14 year old son. He's a good student, friendly, and just a great kid to be around. One day your wife or husband takes him to the doctor because he had a fever and his throat hurt. The doctor tells you that he has Gonorrhea in his mouth. He looks like he's about to cry and says him and another boy at school did some things. What would you do?

Superb Opinion

  • I would ask him who did it and I would make sure to ask him in a way that didn't make him feel like he was in trouble, I would be supportive and ask him to tell me exactly what happened.

    The last thing you want to do is make the child think he is in trouble when you don't even know the whole story, he may well have been sexually assaulted and you are telling him off, so you should be supportive and reassuring so that you know exactly what happened then meet the other boy and talk about it as well.

    let me also say treat the STD before it gets worse.

  • I would be supportive and make sure he gets the medicine he needs to take to get rid of the STD. I'm sure it would be emotionally embarrassing for him. Later I would sit down with him and have a talk about safe sex with a male as well as with a female. I would tell him we would love him no matter what.

  • I’d be confused as to how the fuck he survived so long after the abortion.

    • Care to explain?

    • @DreamCatchcer Abortion is a medical procedure that removes an unwanted fetus from a woman’s uterus. The procedure is typically done in the early stages of pregnancy when the fetus would be unable to survive on its own without direct connection via placenta and umbilical cord. The procedure separating the fetus from the resources it needs to survive will lead to death as a result of asphyxiation, starvation, and in some cases dismemberment. In addition to this most biological waste from any modern hospital is incinerated for sanitary purposes. The idea that an aborted fetus could somehow survive not only the abortion, but the incineration for 14 year and then be functional enough to contract a sexually transmitted disease is extremely unlikely. Hence my confusion.

  • I would call the cops and a therapist hope this helps

  • Teach him about STDs, and make sure he follows his treatment. Gonorrhea is easily curable

  • Probably laugh and just say well at least it wasn't anything else. And tell him he needs to think about his actions more carefully like what if it was something much worse.
    But Gonorrhea really ain't bad so he got lucky.

  • Well he’s going to the doctor.

  • Get him cured and then do better parenting. Gotta make sure he's not crippled by guilt but doesn't go there again.

  • Encourage him to be open with you and tell him you won't judge. If you get upset with him it will likely start a wedge between you and your son.

  • I’d sit down and educate him about safe sex and I’d be upset he was having sex or fooling around at school when he should be getting an education

  • i will tell him in 4 yares he will be out of the house.

    • What if he says he's sorry and would never do it again

    • I will say "Say thanks for leting you know" for shure i will not be able to know if he will do it again, he is contaminated forever.

  • I would ask him why he is sucking another boys penis.

    Tell him he needs to make sure who ever he has sex with both male and females, is SDT free.

    If he enjoys sucking penis buy him a box of flavored condom and tell him to use them.

    Plus, I would ask was he just experimenting or if he his Bi or Gay. Either way he needs to use condoms.

  • Get him to the doctor. And hope that he will say who he has been having sex with...

    • It was oral from another boy at school

    • No difference he should get himself sorted.

  • Would look further into ig and contact the school. Was he possibly forced into an act?

    • He said he was at a friend's house and it was all his idea even though he was curious too

    • wow thats going to be awkward conversation. But be open with him and not to judge and talk about safe sex

  • well if he got it from another boy I would have to know what they were doing and how the other boy got it to give to my son. If in fact he said that instead of telling me he got it from a girl than I would want to know how she got it to give to my son. Either way I would talk to my son and explain to him about being sexual at his age and the risk.

  • Bro what kind of problems u go through and u ask questions like this... if u want dm man

  • I support and love my son.
