Anyway, a while back I was preparing to do some thangs & checked my condom stash, like I normally would {nothing like getting all hot & bothered & needing to run the damn drugstore}. I pull my stash & it's rather light. Now I know what I've been doing & not doing. There's only one explanation, the boy has been in my stash!!
1st let me say I was a lil heartbroken because after all, that's my baby boy. 2ndly I was relieved that all my safe sex preaching didn't go in one ear & out of the other.
Keep in mind I'd ask him periodically if he was having sex & he always said no. I figured he couldn't lie his way out of this one.
I did him just like Mama did me. I cornered & asked him point blank, "Are you having sex & did you take my condoms?" Imagine his shock. He just stood there looking dumb for a moment. So I asked again. He replied with the usual, "Well....err.....ummmm." I politely told my child that even tho I was disappointed that he didn't come to me 1st like I've been asking for the last 5 years, I was glad he had sense enough to protect himself.
I asked him why didn't he just tell me he needed condoms. He replied, "Maaaaaaaaa, that's just not something you tell your mother." I reminded him that I was 17 once & not that long ago. The only difference was, at 17, I was cradling him in my arms.
We talked a lil bit more & my final words to him were, "If you must go to my stash, leave a note, send a text message or something, letting me know what you have taken." He asked why. I simply stated, "I like to fuck too." I think I scarred him for life. {Served his thieving ass right, don't cha think?}
Im scarred myself and I am grown.
ReplyDelete**shivers**
lawdd........
ReplyDeletewell i applaud you.....most parents....atleast the one's around here wont even talk to their male children about sex.....but they talk to the female one's....they forget that it takes two.....
well... You did right teaching him about safe sex ... and serves his ass right to get scarred for life, cause if he'd been buying his own condoms he wouldn't have had to steal them from you! LOL ***hugs***
ReplyDeleteWOW! This is what I have to look forward to with my sons (LOL)
ReplyDeleteOh my damn!! ROFL You told that boy that??? He is definitely scarred for life. My plan is to take my boy to buy some as soon as he is ready. But in my thinking that would probably be the day before he gets married. lol I hope I have the courage when the time comes.
ReplyDeletelol..you know you are a nut...I am sure he was like ummm that was a little bit more than I cared to know...lmao
ReplyDeleteThat's right Mo you gotta be "down" for these young cats. You gotta treat them just like their lil friends would. That breaks the ice and he will come to you from now on w/o the embarassement. You are a great mother. I kind of wish I had that to worry about.
ReplyDeleteLOL.... However harsh that may have sounded coming from mom,,, it does put that sense of reality in him.. at least I would think so.... Im 31 years old and still havent had any kids of my own... The more I hear these lil stories and see the trials my sister goes through raising her 3 kids... I think Im rather satisfied being an aunt...lol I would probably lose my collective cool if I had to deal with that right now...lol... But good job sis...
ReplyDeleteGreat job. He may be scarred but safe at the same time.
ReplyDeleteYEAH!!! He may be Scarred but I am sure he will be safe and the girl will to. I wish the boy my daughter fell in 'love' with at 16 had a mother like you.Then I would not have a 17 yr.old grandsone right now.
ReplyDeleteChoc if someone had told me "the whole truth & nothing but" I probably wouldn't have a damn near grown son either. We live & we learn.....well at least some of us do.
ReplyDeleteOh God girl you got me over here cracking up. That was too funny telling that boy you like to fuck too. ROFL. You are a mess.
ReplyDeletelmaoooooooooooo whoooooooosaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! That was tooo funny! So glad I don't have a boy, I can lock my daughter up in the house! lmaooooooo Thank you for that one I needed it!
ReplyDeleteLMAO!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGurl we are Sisters!!! I had to pull one of those * Shocking Lines* that blew my daughter's wig back, glasses, and lip gloss off too. Back when she was 12 * 22 now*. Gurllllllllllllll we laugh about that now, but back then it wsnt funny at all. Tryna play me!!!
ReplyDeleteI tell parents all the time, you cant be embarrsed when your kids start learning and getting into stuff, you gotta THROW back that same mess they are saying and doing. Then they start to get the message. You aint gonna do your little bit and say your stuff, and MOMMA NOT PUT YOU OUT THERE, GOT ME TWISTED FOR REAL.
I found a letter that my daughte wrote to one of her gurls, CUSSINNGGGGGGGGGGGGG UP A KANSAS CITY STORM, Gurl dont you know I made her stand in front of me and I read that baby like I was one of her school friends. Talking about EMBARRSEDDDDDDDD. Then I started cussing like I was her gurl answering the letter back, and gurl she criedddddddd. She siad momma I will never forget that. LOL
DARN SKIPPY YOU WONT HOME GURL!
CREE LOL
Oh
ReplyDeleteMy
God
You probably made that boys thang shrink right back up in him like a turtle going into its shell ! Hopefully it wont be coming out for a long time now. LMAO
Good for you, mama....and your son is obviously LISTENING!!!
ReplyDeleteKudos to you sista girl...... it's better to know what he's doing than to be suprised down the road with unsettling news.
ReplyDeleteOk, now I AM scarred! I coulda done without that visual! I don't think you scarred him. You didn't just jump into that mode that moment, you've been real with him from day one. Now I'm sure it was in a way that he probably could have done without, but he knew you weren't Beaver Cleaver's mama.
ReplyDeleteBetween you, your uncle and Muda, he's had variety in his life and I imagine he's heard it all. LOL
I still say you're a helluva mama and auntie! (Oh, and know that the nephew will be NOTHING like raising The Boy. They're all different.)
Honey, being 16 & pregnant ain't no joke. I was always in his face. You gotta come correct with these youngsters, in a way they understand. If my caretakers would've done the same for me, I still might've had a few years before I had to tell this story.
ReplyDeleteYou know he was my mama's baby & even tho he was only 10 when she was killed, she kept it real with him too.
ReplyDeleteWhen my uncle figured out I was sexually active, he took me to Milwaukee. We stayed damn near all summer *sigh* with his ex wife & kids. He didn't know how to talk to me. My uncle & gramps were the only men who could ever tell me what to do. Their word was law. Little did my uncle know, all he had to say was, "I know you're fucking and I'm telling you to stop." Trust, my hot ass would've gone into hibernation.
Yeah, he's good n fucked up now lol. I bet the next time he's about to get some for a second he's going to hear you say that and cringe lol. But then he'll go about his business cause he's a guy but it will give him pause lol
ReplyDeleteAnd folks think parenting requires some great skill when sometimes it only takes a few words.
ReplyDeleteLMAO!!!! Good blog mommy :-)
ReplyDeleteYou a trip, Mo! LOL
ReplyDeleteThat's REAL talk right there tho!!
ReplyDeleteTrue. The problem is, that a lot of folks wait until lil Johnny is 14 and then try to be a parent. It's too late then.
ReplyDeleteAmen!
ReplyDeleteTo see the look on his face when his Momma said
ReplyDeleteI like to fuck too!!!
*thud* Bwwwaaaaaa haaa, haaa, haaaaa!!!
Okay I'm done laughing. It's wonderful you talk to your son, and keep talking!!!
