"As an uncle to a 13 year old nephew who thinks he knows it all when it comes to the ladies now that he has moved to secondary. So had his Christmas present got and said I’d get his a few light hearted extras So this evening picked him up his first Gillette razor , a little bottle of durex play lube and 4 bottles of miller. His mother will probably kill me but she will see the funny side " he will think you’re the coolest uncle ever but his Mam will be out for your blood lol | |||

"Thats just wrong Haha. sure it’s just a bit of banter and he is fairly open with bragging so see what he says Still remember 10/12 years ago taking him for drives in an Impreza and him falling asleep " Ah look maybe I am completely missing the joke or I am just a really boring prude but it seems a really bad idea. Your clearly the cool uncle who he respects and looks up to. If you give him that as a present, even as a joke, that is what he sill start aspiring to as cool at 13. I know he may joke and brag butvhe is still at a very vunerable and impressionable age. As I said tho I could be completely over analaysing it I dont have kids | |||

At 13 nowadays (not sounding like an aul fart) they are so much more advanced but agree the bottles of beer I would take back straight away but that 13yr old will go to that uncle with problems or issues as he will feel he can trust him ... good cop bad cop scenario | |||

He owes the drink press at home 2-3 bottles back anyway so he wount be allowed to keep them all. Little brat had borrowed 1 bottle a few weeks ago. Had disposed of bottle discreetly but threw the cap in his bedroom bin and his mother /my sister caught him Sure he would want me to buy him red bull and he takes a slug and the rest is fucked down the sink. | |||

He will go pure red with the durex but it’s more about opening up conversation. And the beer he will be allowed have 1 but he will tip 80% down the sink and other 3 be left behind. I bought him 4 not 20 box. His dad walked out on him 8/9 years ago and we talk loads but 1st year in secondary school and moving to a different county during summer has been massive for him along with his granny/my mother passed away last Christmas so worried he is bottling up emotions | |||

He's 13,teaching kids that drink is the way to be cool or to deal with their problems is so not a good idea. | |||

Everyone has different views but this has worked for me | |||

"He’s 13. All well and good being a “cool” uncle but grow up and cop on." I’m far from cool and my professional are seen as the most boring of all boring professions. But Im there for him as an uncle and grown up and I teaching him valves likes hard work , education , valuing and respecting himself etc Btw I didn’t drink till I was almost 17 and was supervised. I hardly ever drink now and never had a bad relationship with alcohol except an odd hangover | |||

Very advanced and scares me how much he knows since 11/12 compared to what I knew a little over 20 years ago. He will openly admit in a sneering wayto having “alone time “ to me and his mother. But sneering or not he is talking about it. Last year after our family bereavement he was able to tell us how he felt and emotions so being open is of benefit. We need to talk to teenagers now a days. I mean talk. Campaigns like “it’s ok to not be ok” isn’t worth a fiddlers feck without people being able to talk. And teenagers boys do not talk as openly as teenager girls and look who suffers a higher rate of self harm, mental health issues and other taboo issues. | |||

If you can speak so well and be as aware as above then I dont think you need the inapproprate presents to open the conversation with him. Just be there and talk to him as you are. With all his losses he probably needs a steady male adult figure not a banter buddy. Introducing alchohol and sexual aids wont add anymore to your ability to support him. | |||

"Surely you could find another way to tease him. Buying a child and yes hes a child is not only dangerous but illegal. You're giving him permission to drink. A 13yr olds body is not equipped to deal with alcohol at all!! As for the lube I despair. If my brother did this, there would be one less at the Christmas gathering for sure." The bottle will be 2 mouthfuls at most. I know the lad. He would sometimes take a beer out if fridge for me if we had been doing DIY together (20 bottles of Heineken would do me a year) and he takes the cap off and takes a slug. 9/10 times it’s not a positive reaction he gives. So illegal to purchase yes but in reality that’s an outdated law in ROI especially after the last 2 massive votes in Ireland. | |||

He would sometimes take a beer out if fridge for me if we had been doing DIY together (20 bottles of Heineken would do me a year) and he takes the cap off and takes a slug. 9/10 times it’s not a positive reaction he gives. So illegal to purchase yes but in reality that’s an outdated law in ROI especially after the last 2 massive votes in Ireland. You said above he was starting to take beer from the drinks cabnet at home without his mums permission? At 13 thats a warning sign Yes and lost PlayStation for 2 weeks. Supervised is ok see now being a little sneak amd that’s how teenagers learn. " And on the other hand you are encouraging him to drink, at best he's getting conflicting signals. | |||

" "Two mouthfuls at most" That kinda sounds like the first couple of pulls on a cigarette at the back of the bike shed at school and you coughed and spluttered and threw it away and said you'd never smoke and within a week you were hooked. Both my parents use to smoke (and quiet) but I never smoked ever and that includes any illegal substance Just because you try something does not mean you have to become addicted. " Did your parents offer you cigarettes like you are offering a drug to a 13 year old? | |||

He is 13 and developing and going through a few situations that are harder than most deal with. So you encouraging alchohol and thats what you are doing conciously or not by even jokingly giving him a few bottles as a present will only add negitave pressure and influance. Ill leave it there too as we are going in circles now | |||

"Not cool at all imo,I as a mother would be horrified at anyone giving a 13 year old beer and condoms !! Condoms? Sorry,my bad . Still be horrifed at beer and lube ,at such a young age .Im aware kids are way more advanced these days but come on !! Everyone allowed their opinion. Very advanced and scares me how much he knows since 11/12 compared to what I knew a little over 20 years ago. He will openly admit in a sneering wayto having “alone time “ to me and his mother. But sneering or not he is talking about it. Last year after our family bereavement he was able to tell us how he felt and emotions so being open is of benefit. We need to talk to teenagers now a days. I mean talk. Campaigns like “it’s ok to not be ok” isn’t worth a fiddlers feck without people being able to talk. And teenagers boys do not talk as openly as teenager girls and look who suffers a higher rate of self harm, mental health issues and other taboo issues. " Ofcourse we must encourage our young people to open up and talk more but there's enough presure on them from friends and society to grow up way too early -jesus let them just be kids !! | |||

"It's a rather uncool present imo. Similar to the parenting thread we had last week it's adults trying to be best pals with kids rather than being a guidance. Giving drink to a 13 year old even as a joke is just all wrong. You might as well throw in a smoke. As for the lube, condoms would be more appropriate, at least the message of safe sex comes in. If I were you, I'd scrap the whole idea and take the nephew to a good music gig or sports event which will be a way more memorable experience..." The scary thing in this country is the probability that there are many Irish uncle's who would think such a joke gift is a great laugh altogether.... L | |||

"If anyone offered any of my kids condoms at any age below 17 i would have them hung and drawn. That's for parents guardians to do. Teach them respect and understanding not make it a "cool" thing to do or be. Your basically giving them permission to break the law. And if caught fucked up for life. Sorry for me being a prude. But "cop on" please " | |||

And then correct other posters for misquoting you. Gotcha Took about 90seconds to fact check it for ya by the way | |||

So had his Christmas present got and said I’d get his a few light hearted extras So this evening picked him up his first Gillette razor , a little bottle of durex play lube and 4 bottles of miller. His mother will probably kill me but she will see the funny side " ffs wise up! 13!!! I would seriously disown any of my family who thought this might be a wee joke. Kids have to grow up so quick as it is, this is insane. Leave it a few years then go for it! | |||
