not letting my 13 year old choice his underwear

amymoe · 2017-03-24 20:06:46

hi iam a 40 year old woman and i am a single mom i have a son who is 13 years of age and he currently wears briefs which he has done all his life as that is what i buy him as i do allow him to wear boxer shorts, recently he has asked me for the first ever time in his life mom can you buy me boxer shorts, off course i said to him your 13 there is nothing wrong with your briefs, then i asked him why he is asking for boxer shorts when he never said the word, he then replied mom because in the changing rooms at high school other boys are teasing him as a lot of them wear boxers, i off course told him to grow up and be a man, i said look you need to just ignore them and not give in to peer pressure i meam why is he even bothering what some jerks say any way he needs to learn to me a man so i told him firmly no you are going to keep wearing briefs because thats what mom says and you respect her and do as she says . he says i am being unfair but i do not think i am i dont really care what he thinks he not adult he not old enough to make his own choices and while he lives under his moms roof hev will wear what he mom says and that is briefs, but i sometimes just out of interest wonder if i am being a bit harsh and a bit old school what do you think do boys that age wear briefs or boxers, i want him until he turns 18 to wear briefs then he can choose, its not like i buy him tighty whities i buy him coloured ones?
