If he still lived at home with me I would not want him to have to resort to this site for questions I am more than willing, and in some case still do, answer for him.
The reason I try to always recommend talking with your parents on a question asked is that we as parents are the best source for any question you have. With my son my wife and I told him early in his teenage years there was no question he could not ask us. Unfortunately these question landed in my wife's lap most times because my job kept me away from home a lot.
It is my belief that it is a parents job to teach their children about life and that includes sex. If you are unwilling to teach you can't be surprised or angry if your daughter comes home pregnant in her teenage years. It's as much the parents fault for not being there to teach the girl how to protect herself and how to abstain until she is truly ready.
So I answer questions on this sight as best I can as if I were answering them for my child. Generally with the added clause that you talk to your parents as well. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]

I have a child, Would I allow them to use this site? No. The reason why I wouldn't allow it is because some of the questions on the site are not appropriate. There are a lot of young folks asking sexual questions etc. This is a great site for advice but I believe this site also has an influence on the way people handle issues and the advice that some get aren't always the best.

Well it depends. If their 12-14 i would want to see what they were puting on the website and see what responses they got back. If they started talking about sex I would want to see the responses. If they were talking about boy or girl problems I would want to see the response because they could give them bad advice. Anything like friends or something liek that they could do on their own as long they are not fighting or threating to kill someone.
If they were 15 and up of course and they can talk about whatever. I just would let them know they can come to me about anything.
Another rule would don't give out a personal email unless they knew them.
