Most people don't realize that sexual addictions are very prevalent in American Culture. The problem is that people put such a negative stigma on it that they afraid to come forward. Unfortunately for this lad, he decided to ask for advice on an Internet Forum. Just look how dramatically his parents (and sister) reacted when they found out. It is all rooted in our puritanical foundation as a country. There could've been many, many other ways to hold that "intervention" that wouldn't have caused him embarassment. Yes, what he is doing is wrong, but if left untreated it could lead to more events/habits (known as "acting out") that could be more visible and get him in trouble with the law. The fact that they have told him that he has to pay for his visits with the mental health professional pissed me off. He may have a ligitimate sexual addiction and his parents are going to have to realize that he is ill and his actions may have started out as innocent curiosity, but soon got way out of hand for him and now he can't help himself. I doubt if his innocent curiosity was playing with matches and he caught himself on fire, they would make him pay for the medical bills.
