Are you afraid that your son would be the first confused teenager to ever set foot in a PP? I suspect, and this is just my gut feeling, that they might have experience providing medical care to confused teenagers.
Personally, I'd be more afraid that my son was going to accidentally knock someone up, or that if he did knock someone up, that he'd lack access to resources because he wasn't comfortable coming to me.
