That is good parenting, if you ask me.īut I’m guessing that part of why you’re asking this question is because facilitating a teen’s sexual expression is taboo and may feel like a weird thing to do, given teens’ vulnerability to exploitation. By providing a vibrator, you are not merely being sex-positive you’re fostering efficiency. Just as you wouldn’t try to stop a fish from swimming or a bird from flying, so should you not attempt to impede a teenager from masturbating.
Philosophically, I see nothing wrong with you buying your 13-year-old son a sex toy, as he will be masturbating anyway.
