This is a fetish, not a mental illness. He doesn't do or sell drugs, he's not a thief, he hasn't gotten a girl pregnant, he's never battered you, as far as I can tell.

I say count your blessings. Stop making him feel like a freak. Put him in therapy, but committing him? Talk to some parents who have REAL problems with kids so scary they make your son look like a lamb. Stop blaming him for something so harmless.

My son used to save gallon jugs of his own urine under his bed. He was kicked out of school for constantly making threats (murder, arson, etc.) and one day he looked at me and told me how easy it would be to poison me. Not only would I trade places with you, I'd buy him a baby blanket and read Goodnight Moon to him every night. My son is a sociopath and one of the scariest human beings I've ever known and when he disappeared when he was sixteen, I was relieved.

So maybe you should thank God you have your kid and didn't end up with one like mine.
My sympathies.
