    Completely normal. Although it's considered taboo in today's world, it's healthy for Boys and girls of this age to masturbate in moderation.

    It's normal. He's starting puberty and has hormones. It's not bad. Don't make him think it's bad either or there will be problems later

    Have you forgotten your own trip into puberty. Did you not start masturbating at or around the same age?

    YES it is totally normal, if you try to stop him you will probably turn him into a serial horse rapist. The only thing you need to tell him is it's something guys do by themselves, never in public, and it's not something he should talk about except with his parents.
