How do I talk to him about "that"?

Question

So, my little brother is 14 and is sexually active. He says he hasnt had s*x yet. ( i know this is awkward) anyways, he is saying that he is starting to itch down low. And i don't know how to talk to him and warn him about STD's. What should be the conversation starter? I'm concerned about him.

Answer 1

Tell him about sexually  transmitted disease [STD] and tell him how dangerous it can be. And he could be going through puberty also.  

Answer 2

Just tell him. Cut and dried. If you can't do it, tell your mom or dad. If you don't want to talk to them, ask your family doctor to speak to him.

Someone needs to have "The Talk" with the boy and educate him. Aside from STDs, he needs to know the consequences about pregnancy. It sounds like you're a good sister, someone he would talk to, and listen to. Besides, one day you'll be a mom, and this will be a good chance to learn how to talk to a young man about such things. Good luck.  

Answer 3

now i think it would be better 2 ask ur mum

when ur mum tells him u can like warn him more about STD's

thats what i'd do

Answer 4

Take him to the health department and get him checked out, and tell him to always use the free condoms they give out.  Then, encourage him to talk to someone he trusts about s*x, whether it's you, parents, an uncle, whatever.  He needs to be educated.

Answer 5

He tells you it itches down there but he is not having s*x.  Okay,  You probably should talk to your dad.  If there is no dad around then talk to your mom.  She may want to have him talk with a doctor if she is not comfortable addressing the issues involved.  Not all mothers know how to talk about the male part of sexuality.  But if your brother comes to you try and talk to him as if he does not have s*x but is thinking about it.  There is more to it than just the condom issue, sounds like there could be a hygiene issue too.  Just talk with him,  He sounds like he is embarrassed about it but want to know.  Hopefully you can get a man to talk with him that he trusts.  It is a hard subject.  I was lucky with my son, we were able to talk about anything but it was still kinda hard.

Answer 6

ugh ew ask your mum to talk to him or something....

Answer 7

Sit him down in private and say "let's talk about your becoming a man." and go from there...listen closely to him.

Answer 8

You are already talking to him go to www.webmd.com on the net there he can ask all the questions him self then tell him to talk to your parents or a trusted adult.

Answer 9

I think that you should sit him down and talk to him about STD. I mean the itch can mean crabs or something like that. I have an 18 year old brother and he started having s*x at 12. I'm not embarrassed to talk to him about it. I show him pictures of people with STD's and now he learns from what I showed him and taught him and he is very careful. It kind of actually scared him which is a good thing because they need to learn. Go to a free clinic go ask the doctors questions.
