Comment on HELP! How do I help educate my son about his body when I know nothing about boys??

I think the two big things I have to add are:
-
Don’t let the church educate your son on these things.
-
Don’t say nothing.
If you’re unsure about talking to them about these things yourself, seek out a man you trust, talk to them about it and make sure your values align, and then talk to your son about them together.

Unfortunately, I do not have any close male friends, so I may need to address things myself.

Ah, didn’t mean for my advice to seem disparaging in anyway, so I apologize if that seemed the tone of it.
Luckily, as others have mentioned on the thread, there’s a ton of great resources online to help you out. You’re going to do great, and when your son is older, he’ll be grateful that you took the time.

No no! I just get frustrated with myself for not always being able to provide proper resources for him.
I do appreciate the help! Thank you.
