My 18 year old more than likely does have sex now. He has a new girlfriend. The reason I was "concerned" was that at 17, he had "unprotected" sex and admitted it to the doctor. He was checked for any diseases, and he is clean. He has condoms in his wallet, always had, since age 16. Unfortunately, he did not use them when he first had sex! That was my concern.
As far as my 18 year old reading sex books, he does not...to my knowledge. No books were ever at home or his room. If he does "read them", it's somewhere else.
I haven't actually "quizzed" my 18 year old if he is having sex. The only statement I made to him was...."are you both using protection??"....He replied, "yes, she had a shot that will prevent pregnancy." I replied "excellent! You both are too young to be parents", and he said "Ohhh, yeah"! And the conversation was dropped.
