Me and my parents are really close, but for some reason hardly have ever talked about sex or puberty. Which is kinda weird cause I already and getting hair on my upper lip and almost a happy trail. Pretty much full grow pubes too. And I could probably get laid when ever I wanted to on top of that. Any way I can make them talk to me about it? I just want them to be able to talk about it front of me. I really don't understand you think they would notice by now.

Just bring it up to them, I was very leery of talking to my parents up until they straight up told me, it's okay... If you really have a desire to talk to them, extend that olive branch and have a convo... I find it easier with my pops though cause were both guys, lol...

It depends on what you're comfortable with talking to them about. Sex related, or anything in that area, they may be a little weary and uncomfortable about talking to you. But bringing up your facial hair shouldn't be a problem, as most if not all guys ask their parents to shave. But if they're not taking the initiative to talk, maybe you should ask, but be careful about what you're getting yourself into.

why would you want to talk to ur parents about it? sum parents its hard to talk about it, leave it to the mand dont think anything of it, these days its pretty obvious that kids age of 12 know the knowledge of our age these days of 18-20 year olds..dont worry about it

With my father it was just something unthinkable, taboo, to talk about. Luckly here I feel comfortable talking to my uncle about it. With my mum I couldn't.

Some would consider you lucky.
If you really want to talk to your parents about sex and puberty, then the best thing to do is just to start the conversation yourself. If they haven't already and it seems as though the signs of puberty are very clear, from what you've told us, then your parents might not be intending to have 'that talk'.

a friend of mine had many talks with his dad about puberty and sex and stuff since he was like 11 now he's 13 and they're really open with stuff. my dad started having a sex talk with me a few months back for like half hour but nothing since then. i wouldn't mind rly if he wanted to talk, its obvious i'm in puberty now.

see i am the opposite because i would die if my parents started talking about sex with me and to be honest, thats the last thing i would want. besides lol if they ever did i know it would be about girls and since im not into them like that it would be horrible.

If u feel comfortable, just find the right place and the right time with them and do it. But if u think they are getting too nervous maybe u should ask them. I think you are lucky to have a close relation with them. :cool:No every1 can say that.:eek: I hope i could be that way too:whoops:

start the convo yourself maybe with your dad cuz he'd probably understand the male hormones making you wanna have sex and all the such... since my dad is not rely in my life (divorce) i dont rely talk to him but he told me last summer that if ever needed condoms go into his dresser it was cool. so if you wanna have the sex talk i suggest it with your dad but you can with your mom or both your choice just start the conversation

its just as awkward for them to talk about it with you as it is for you to bring it up with them. if you wanna have the talk, just start with a simple question, such as asking your dad when he first started shaving, or something innocent like that. if you dont wanna bring it up, the web has a wealth of information on all topics puberty, so you shouldnt be left in the dark.

Hmm well you could be open to your dad more since he underwent the same stage. He'd understand you. :)

Maybe they just feel a bit awkward bringing up the subject or they may think you already know enough

If you really want it, then you go initiate it. Go talk to them.
