I have a 14-year old son and want to talk to him about sex, protection, masturbation, etc. Yet anytime I bring up the subject, he closes me out and doesn't want to talk about it. Can you give me any tips on how to talk to my teenager about sex? Click here for answers.

My 18 year old son has been in a relationship with a girl for the past 8 months. We talk openly about many issues, one being sex - although we certainly don't condone having sex at his age, we want to make sure they are smart and safe if they decide to have sex. This morning, after some coaching as I could tell something was bothering him, he shared with me that he and his girlfriend tried to have sex last night and he could not achieve an erection. He is so embarrassed. I tried to tell him that the first time there is so much anxiety and expectations and this is a pretty common thing. Now he feels very "stupid" and like a failure and he won't be able to have sex. What advice can I give him? Click here for answers.
