Concerned Dad

I am a single father of two boys ( 10 and 14 year olds ) and have noticed lately my 10 year old is trying all he can to see his brother naked. My 14 year old does junior weights and has a small gym in our garage where he works out. We have a shower in the corner so he works out naked so he can go straight to the shower when he is done. I am OK with this as a parent as he locks the doors and keeps quiet.
Both myself and my 14 year old have noticed him trying to look thru cracks in the blinds even under the door to see his brother. I have spoken nicely to him and he denies doing this even though I have seen him. This has to stop but I am at a loss as to what to do. My 14 year old has gone back to wearing pants now but his brother is still trying to look. I have spoken to my 14 year old and he assures me he is not teasing my 10 year old with erections or anything,I dont even think the 14 year old has pubic hair or erections yet. What should I do? I have spoken with boys about the birds and the bees, have also checked 10 year olds room, there are no condoms or anything. . . .
yet he shows no interest in wanting to look at his 12 year old sister who has small enough boobs that you can see the bumps under her shirts. Please help, dont know what to do.

two words: he's gay. Understand? Good.

I would suggest you check his Internet activity.

I think it is highly unusual that your son is doing this. The idea that he wants to be like his brother is a possibly idea as well. I don't know what your stand is on homosexuality, but that may also be a possibility. Just make sure your son knows you love him and spend enough time to know what is going on in his life, and his thoughts if he is willing to talk to you about his feelings in his every day life. :)

This is normal for a boy to behave in this type of way I think it might be because your son is trying to be like his brother. It can also be that your son might like other males really this is nothing to be sad about. But most of the time your son can grow out of it because he is at a young age which means that soon your son will see a girl hes age then he will make up his mine about if he like boys or girls.
