Hi Mike - Welcome to EC! :)

Well this is the right place for suggestions, and I'm sure you'll get plenty of help and support.

As you'll see from some of the other threads, telling parents is a biggie - probably the biggest issue - so there's nothing wimpy with being hesitant about that one.

How old are you, by the way? That could affect the advise you get.

Hi miner! you'll find lots of guys (and girls) on this site that are around your age or were going through what you are at your age. Read the other posts and don't hesitate to ask questions if you have them.

No, not at all. All ages are welcome here ('cos there's no porn). :thumbsup:

Hi Mike - I've been busy the last couple of days, so just catching up with what's been going on.

Sorry for the slightly late "welcome" - hope you find our little corner of the web enjoyable. :)

The problem is, if we had porn we would have to set a minimum age limit of 18 (by law). We wanted a site for all, including under 18s.

Quite a few of our under-18 members are here after being banned from an 18+ site (run by the same people as this one) and referred here.
