Hello. Please help. I think my son (he's 16) has a sexual problem. He masturbates and comes on my bed, on the walls, in his stuffed animals. It makes me feel very bad and uncomfortable. I think it's bad manners, or a disease, or just being promiscuous. What should I do? I've talked to him, cried, and asked him not to do it, but he says, "Everyone does it, just forget about it, etc." I agree that many people masturbate, but why does he do it on my bed? Does he hate me, or...? For me, it's humiliating and offensive. And I'm already turning a blind eye to him watching porn, Playboy, and looking at sexual magazines. The internet is full of pictures – it's been going on for about four years. I've told him that it's wrong, and if he can't tell me why he's doing it, we should go see a sex therapist or a psychiatrist. He replies, "If you're sick, then you go." What should I do? I can't live like this anymore; I'm tired. Maybe I'm the patient on the operating table. Alena.
