I was "active" at 13. Good idea?...Of course not!...Reality?...Yes. Information is EVERYTHING. Be there for him and teach him that having a baby is likely the easiest part of some of the things that can happen today. Kids are kids and puberty raises "issues" in both sexes. Do they know what to do with them?...Most likely not but, they know what they've heard.
Now, who did they hear it from becomes the question. If they heard from a father/mother/true loved one, they may go forth to satisfy their urges but, hopefully, they go forth with caution. If they heard it from one of their "knows everything at 13-15 yrs old" friends, they're gonna go forth with reckless abandon!
My dad was a parent at 17 and he harped caution and safety in this topic. He didn't want to see any of his 3 kids make the same mistake that he did. Guess what...I listened. I was three weeks shy of 28 when my first was born. I'm glad he talked to me because I would have been a horrible parent any earlier than that.
