"Something Private"

While Daron struggled with another bowel movement he told me that he was upset at Ian and Elaine, who apparently closed everyone out of Daron's room because they were going to do something private.

When asked, Ian told me he couldnt tell me because it was "private."

Mike walked in the door from shul and I said "They are going to YNJ"

I am freaking. Do I tell him - he is not old enough to be doing anything in private. Or you have to be married to do something in private? Or is that dumb. It is not true and he will just know I am not telling a truth- or he will feel guilty and the need to hide things from me. How to balance wanting to be someone he can talk to with someone who sets the rules. What are the rules? Where is my rulebook for this?
