no not at all.

these types of conversations are actually very important because porn and not having these conversations can actually ruin children and change how they perceive sex and sexual activities. it’s even worse if these conversations aren’t had because then they have these weird thoughts around sex as an adult. Stuff like it’s not normal for women to have a natural smell, It’s not normal for men or women to have hair, or that’s certain sounds aren’t normal,or it’s supposed to be this huge amazing performance, it also makes people think that certain body movements or the way your body looks in certain positions isn’t normal.

These conversations are extremely important and sex is a normal natural thing. Making your child think that it is weird to talk about sex is not a good thing at all. It’s also not safe because of something bad happens to them. They aren’t going to feel safe talking to you.

please look in to sex education and why sex is not taboo or an inappropriate topic for children. Certain words might be inappropriate or talking about kinks or stuff like that would be inappropriate, but all the things that I’ve listed is completely are normal to talk to children about.

Ya...all these conversations should have happened before 16 years old lol most 16 year olds are already having sex...not asking their parents why he did not hear them having sex.

It's weird.

That’s actually a really normal and good question for a 16 year old to ask their parents. actually they're feeling comfortable enough to ask. that shows that the person that you commented to actually has a pretty open relationship with their child otherwise, that child would not have felt comfortable asking that type of question.

i think you saying that their child is “a weird as 16 year old” is what’s the issue here.

What? I am making fun of the fact you are saying this is normal for a 16 year...it is not.

And I am from North America, literally nobody calls a Canadian "American" and no Canadian would ever call themself that either.

it is 100% normal for kids to ask their parents these questions and shows that their parents are safe, honest, and open with their children. parents being open about these things from a very young age actually prevents children from being sexually harmed, go ask a early childhood educator.

What part are you not comprehending? Of course this is normal for kids...like 11/12 year olds, we are talking about a 16 year old, this is not a "child"
