Need help with 12 year old son

"Risperidone, sold under the brand name Risperdal among others, is an antipsychotic.[2] It is used to treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and irritability associated with autism"

I'm not saying that means it's a good idea, but I guess that explains why.

I've tried two anti-psychotics and found both experiences horrifying.

I just noticed, rereading this, that it seems like quite a jump to say, "Schizophrenia...Bipolar... annnnd irritability associated with autism. They're a grumpy bunch, they are."

People into little boys are often cult and church people. I think it's an important distinction.

And now I'm also curious how you know he does some of these things. I wonder if he brags. "'Nother stall, Dad! " and gets the response, "STOP IT, THIS IS BECAUSE YOU READ HARRY POTTER, ISNT IT"

i kept re reading your comment for half an hour and now Im late for work. I was going to say something about your wife but I will abstain. HOW DARE YOU BE SO FUNNY, its a crime against nature!

There's absolutely nothing wrong with exploring ones self sexually. It's one of those things that's apart of life and it's basically inevitable. Would you also prefer your child/children not learn about other aspects of life, such as morality, philosophy, and potentially exploring other religions/spirituality and ways of thinking later on in their lifetime? Aside from those who believe in Reincarnation, we all get one life and it's the only chance we have to explore and experience anything and everything possible, good, bad and neutral, during it for better or worse.

I'm going to be open about this without shame or embarrassment and say I started masturbating along with watching porn when I was around 9 or 10 and still do both on a regular basis at 23 years old, and I once thought I was possibly Bisexual, though I'm now leaning towards the possibility of being Heteroflexible. Am I ok with that? Absolutely. Does it change who I am or how I view myself? Absolutely not.

Also, try and put yourself in your child's shoes and mind for a moment; How do you believe he would feel if he got disowned by you or your wife for doing the things he's doing at his age? How would he react if he were disowned and cut out of the family for potentially coming out as being Gay or Bisexual when older (think teenage years, 14 to 15-ish), or coming out as being Transsexual, or even changing religions out of curiosity as well as seeing it as a opportunity for a new learning experience?

I ask this because in these potential future events, they will very likely change his views about you if you choose to take these opportunities to explore his life away from him as you're apart of his support network of the utmost trustworthy and dependable people he knows to seek out when he needs advice and guidance on topics such as what's been mentioned above. They of course will clash with everything you know, believe, and understand at this point, but it's always good to have the knowledge and advice of these kinds of things at hand in the event anything I've said does come up later, so you can be a well of positivity and encouragement in his life rather than the opposite.
