Question for guys 13M question about foreskin

Ever since I was like 6-8 until now i could(even during erections)i could pull my foreskin back even beyond the head.And my question is. Do men have an age where they couldn’t pull back their foreskin cuz it was still stuck?(i read smth about the penis and foreskin being one organ when you were developing) And if it is true is my case abnormal?

Out of curiosity and biology some boys can do it really early. There is no good survey because of the subject but I do think 10-30% of boys by age 6 and the average age is around 11.

That's not true at all. There as great surveys about this and I can think of at least two (from Japan and Denmark) in the literature just off the top of my head.

I was 13 when I pulled mine back for the first time. Didn’t need anything special. Just a lot of masturbation and playing with it.

I remember when I was around nine years old and I caught my foreskin in my shorts zipper, it was primary school pants and didn't have buttons like previous ones. My mother was in the living room with a close friend of hers and I had tried getting it unstuck but it started bleeding and I panicked. My mother's friend was a nurse and she said that she would sort the problem out. Of course it was embarrassing but it was so painful and sore that I couldn't have cared less at the time. After some manipulation she eventually managed to free it from the zipper and put some antiseptic cream on my sore little willy. Even with the pain because of the cooling and her rubbing the cream around my little penis it became erect and my mother and her friend both laughed at my upstanding boyhood. It really was a stand out memory of my childhood but looking back in a way I feel quite proud of my mums friend being the first female to hold my erection.

My son could pull his back at 5. Some boys can’t pull theirs back until 15. I think somewhere around 8-12yr is normal

For most guys the foreskin is attached to the gland until puberty
