So very recently I bought some toys without my parent knowing and the package got sent through the mail and my parents were wondering about it and I don't know what to say without it making me look weird I know you can do this stuff at any age but I'm only 13 so it seems even more of an awkward conversation that I don't want to have I don't think they would react badly but I don't want them to think of me in another way because of it and I want to talk about so they don't find it on their own is there any good way of going about it?

Hi MRlemon,

I know it feels awkward but you're not doing anything wrong. As you said, people explore masturbation from very young ages and that's perfectly normal.

Have you ever had any conversations with your parents regarding sex/masturbation in the past? Do you have a sense of how they feel about the topic and talking about it with you?
