The best thing to do is to educate him about it. Tell him the dangers and give him some honest stories that happened to yourself and people you know. Hopefully you can reason with him to wait a bit longer but if not you should stress the importance of doing blood work and monitoring everything. Also make sure he is cycling them correctly / responsibly.

old enough to take roids, old enough to fuck up, bash him.........................pmsl.
you have no control over your child, you may impose your will, your rules, your manipulation, the laws under your roof, but the child will do as they choose, and it may not be to your liking. So keep that in mind when you approach this situation, its gonna work itself out, but that doesnt mean itll go the way you like. A little bit of father son and a little bit of friend to friend, but no matter how I did it I would be stern and loving at the same time....luck
Just remember bro...Treat him how you would want to be treated! My son is not quite that old. But I know one thing I would have a sit down and talk to him father to son. Not friend to friend but father to son! There is a fine line! I keep seeing this post and would think how would I react if I caught my boy doing something that I wouldn't want him to be doing. I feel for you man. Unfortunately my father found a bottle of test C when I was his age and he started taking it him self. He mentioned it to me but told me I better not be caught with it again and left it there.
Whats good for the goose is not necessarily good for the gander. You definately have a responsibilty discouraging use by your son. Our children are our "second chance" if you will. When it's concerning a path we have walked and understood it's not as glamorous as they may see it, we must execute a plan of action that does not take them down the same road! Which means hands on retribution...a scary thought....take that bottle of test! Never happened! Distraction is the key if you are truly worried! Start preparing meals together, aquire a bench and some dumbells...make lifting a "together" thing followed by meal! Take him out after lifting, he is only trying to immulate you...believe it or not! Address his use and reassure him that this moment isnt the time or the place for that! He's young...strong....willing...to apply the next level when dad is dead and gone!
Did he get it out of your stash
Punctuation makes a world of difference.
I've been using steroids for 15 yrs now since I was 23 recently. (you started at 8?)

I did hard drugs. I told my kids I've done hard drugs and drank heavily. I answered every question they had honestly. I told them every regret I had, and what I learned along the way. Once my youngest boy (13) bought a small bag of weed at school, thought the better of it, and got caught when he flushed it down the toilet. He wanted to be "cool" but his conscience gave him away.
This would be no different. Have an honest conversation with him. tell him what you know, and what you would have done differently. Take him under your wing and train and eat together.
I agree 100% one of mine kids are grown the other almost 17, and man let me tell you life has changed since I was 17 that it is unreal half the time my son tells me things that I don't know nothing about, and that is just liked you said we have that relationship he tells me everything openly and freely I don't have to ask and I'm same with him as well he ask me I tell him. it took years to build that relationship and I don't take it for granted. Todays society doesn't help the kids like they did when i was growing up and i understand its a lot harder own them now as well I see it all the time..
AnonSounds like the story of my life! When I was 17 my dad found a bottle of pro hormones I believe m1t in my room. (I know it was stupid but we all make mistakes) my dad was no stranger to anabolic steroids. It was a long talk to say the least! He told me about the negatives, and how he is on trt for life from
Abusing hormones. Wish you look ! Hopefully your kid listens more then I did!!
Go into his room and say "is this your bottle of test?" After his denials say: "who taught you how to do this!?!" And he will scream back: "I learned it from watching you!!!!"
Or you could just be his father and talk to him and lay down the law.
This betrays our age, knowing what this commercial was, and how "influential" it was during our youth. I remember that one well.
However, in all seriousness, this is a fantastic topic for those dads here who have sons.
I posted a link below to this PSA, because I realized most would have no idea what the hell I was referring to.
It is a great topic. I have several sons and they I've talked to them about AAS use for some time now. We've talked about all aspects of it and especially what it does to someone who is under 25. I think when it's not a mystery to them and they realize what it really does and what it doesn't do, they can make a good decision. They've all chosen to stay away from them, which I'm grateful for.

I haven't seen that commercial for probably 25 years or more. Wow. Thanks for the blast from the past! (I did see this link a few days ago, but didn't click on it, just brushed right by it. Thanks for sharing! The kids here won't appreciate it, but us older gents will certainly get a chuckle.) +1 for memory lane!
I always loved that. I did some drugs when I was that age (as seen in that commercial), but my parents never did any drugs, so it just never rang true, but I always got a kick out of it.
I think it just taught parents to not let their kids see them do drugs! LOL.
Right and then after you lay down the law explain to him how awesome his own natural system is right now along with what he risks by going down this road. Explain the difference between 18 and 40..
The talking part would include this. I've got kids this age and we've had this discussion, but it was before they thought about trying things.
Same here. And to my utter amazement it actually worked.
bigmurphGrow said it just because you do it doesn't make it something for him to do you said he is 18 he is grown so he is going to make his own decisions in life but the way you say it sounds like he still sleeps in your house so your rules. Have the talk see why he wants to use. Then educate him on what we tell every young guy here its not for people that are young.
Good luck tuff spot.
"I used to do that so I can't say much".. Screw that, I fucked a fat bird on a one night stand once and got her pregnant, if you did the same would you tell your son it's okay?!
Hell no! Sit down with him and have a man to man, read through medical records with him and such to show him it's not the way, also bro I'd start working out with this bright young lad and help him with his diet so he can be a swole mofo! Teach him the ways where you went wrong!
Just for the record I've not got anyone pregnant and I've never engaged in sexual activity with a fat bird.. Okay maybe one or two.. On a tren cycle.. But that doesn't count right?!
the way you put this, i am not sure if the issue is that it was a "fat bird" or if it was that you got her pregnant
???
I thought I smelt blue footed bobbies in here.............lol
I forgot to throw in help him with diet..+++
