Okay so after downloading the most current Itunes tonight. I saw something new. On the side bar it shows "Chris's frostwire" in shared music. What's this? Just so you know he's my son. How come this showed up? He has never been on my macbook pro before. Is there a way to delete this?

Now that I went back to it, it has disappeared. Now I am confused.

Does he have a Mac/PC of his own?

If so, has it got Home Sharing enabled?

Home Sharing would be my guess also.

He has a pc in his room. So if I were to disable it would I need to do it from his pc?

Yes you would need to turn Home Sharing off on his PC's iTunes.

Though it does no harm . . . . .

You never know - he "might" have a few songs you'd like - maybe...

Not telling you how to parent, but your son is likely to be illegally downloading music. This *could* expose you to legal problems. You may want to discuss this with him.
