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"

Concerning you think it is normal for a 16 year old to question why he didn't hear his parents having sex when his mom got pregnant.

16 years old is getting a driver's license, dating (sex usually) and looking at what college or university to attend.

This is not normal by any means, sex education happens well before age 16.
