What would be the most important things to discuss with him?

Imagine you are a parent to an 11-year-old boy. You noticed that he is going through puberty and have overhead him talking to his friends about sex. From what you overhear, many of the things they are saying are false. For example, your son and his friends said things like: “80% of people have sex by the time they are 13;” “you can’t get an STD from oral sex,” and “you only need to use condoms if you have an STD.” You decide it is time to talk to your son about sex to clear up his misconceptions.
