His mates are apparently doing it and I've told him i am sickened by this and all the other usual blah like you're underage, its illegal, you will get someone pregnant.... he tells me that im right and he wont do it but he is so easily influenced. What can i do to put him off and stop him from doing it....I've threatened to tell mum but she is soo wrapped up in her own life that he literally gets away with everything. His dad ain't around and as his sister im not really willing to get social services involved. so i guess what im asking is, what would you do? and what would you say to him? Reply to this Question

 Don't mind the anon male, you are an excellent sister for being worried at the idea of a 13 y.o., basically a child regardless of how physically developped, getting involved too early in experiences that he is WAY too young to handle. Of course you can't MAKE him do what you want, you can just keep talking to him and tryng to get some sense in his teenager hormon-addled brain. And, like another poster suggests, do get involved your mom- or father if he's around. Don't assume that your mom won't care, she may surprise you. She may very well be a bit self involved when everything is under control, but be ready to switch into battle mode if there's a problem.

Teach him about what not to do with/against a woman (facials, etc.) Young men are different than females when it comes to sexual exploration...try to be a better sister.

talk to your mom. im sure that even if she is "in her own world" she will listen if she found her 13 year old son is thinking about having sex. if she doesn't, she is a terrible parent.
