Default Looking for suggestions............

OK..... my soon to be 15 YO boy is moving into the age......

For those of you who know about "sex bracelets" (those thin plastic bracelets
in multiple colors where each color means a different sex act) and teeenage
boys......

I found a sort of diary entry (only one in the school notebook) about him
breaking a girl's bracelet and not performing whatever it was (it didn't
specify what the "act" was to be). He says he chose not to force the matter
because he really cares for this girl and laments his part in getting her back
together with someone "she was going with".

My concern is that he believes these things are real (in the twisted kinda
teenage boy fantasies) and that he really may believe in the future that he is
due something for breaking a bracelet.

Should I address this at all (without reference to the notebook) or should I
just let this go? How would a Mom broach THIS subject without the implication
she found something she shouldn't? Everything I can think of comes back to
knowing something in order to address the situation.... They have stopped with
the news articles since these things have been banned from schools.

Also there is the bigger picture to consider....... even knowing he is a
hormonal teen, how can I get across to him that there should be no
expectations?

Just my 2 cents.........
