It's worrisome, I know. I was the same way. But when my guy was that age, he wasn't exactly discriminating in the way he understood subtleties or shades of info. I'm not sure he could have completely fathomed the differences. That's why I'd have happily left him in the dark for a another few years. By the time he was 16 or 17, he understood degrees of meaning a little better. (We're still working on that at 20.)

Young teenage years are such a funny, squirrelly age. I miss those days!
