Of course they are not ready for sex. Doesn’t mean they are going to abstain. What a dumb comment.
When my kids were in high school, they definitely were having sex. When I was in high school, I wasn’t having sex, but some kids were.
When my kids were in high school all the mothers took their daughters to the doctor to get birth control to ease menstrual pain and heavy flow. That is the fiction used to make getting your daughter birth control acceptable. Birth control is vastly superior to teen pregnancies.
My son had a girl friend in high school. It didn’t cross my beady little mind that they were sexually active until I found a used condom while emptying his trash. At which point I called the girl’s mom and calmly said our kids were sexually active. She got her daughter on birth control.
All this moral clap trap about sex—people, it’s too late. It has always been too late. People are going to have sex. Period. Birth control is a dandy idea.
common sense about teens and birth control? I agree with you, it’s much better than teen pregnancy.
Even if you tell your kids not to, sometimes nature takes its course.
Encourage them to do the thing that results in pregnancy...Yeah that’ll work.

Well that makes two of us with practical attitudes about teenage sex.
What do you call a couple who uses condoms?
PARENTS
Once the number of sexually active girls in a group passes a threshold, then girls who DON’T have sex find themselves at a competitive disadvantage as far as attracting male attention. Then most of the girls will go along with the group dynamics.
It used to be that girls would “slut shame” other girls, for just that reason.
When teen pregnancy was seen as having very negative consequences, then girls avoided sex in order to avoid having their futures ruined.
Today’s society does not agree with the idea of people, especially girls, facing consequences.
How about large rubber bands to keep those legs closed
I see that the government has already removed parents’ rights. You get the bills and the financial responsibility, but the All Powerful State is in control of their minds and bodies.
They already have access to condoms. Birth Control isn’t the problem

And how is that clap trap working for you dude? You desire the girls to “face the consequences”? You made your bed now lay in it? How far does that go? Do you believe in life vests? Or should people who go to sea face the consequences of going to sea? What about seat belts? Should people just face the consequences of driving? Motorcycle helmets? Running shoes? You make me tired.

What utter horse manure. I never had a problem attracting guys and I never put out.
When they run out of free condoms, what do they do?
I think maybe dispensing some behavior control would be more effective.
Yes, that saying goes back a long time. Spent many years in the past providing Christian ministry to the city, and before that I delivered milk to the city, and knew it rather well. It has (and has) two basic sections, one "higher class" and the other "lower class." Its prevalent sins were drugs and fornication and those of welfare, not so much violent crime (and is even now only #11 among cities in MA in that category.
It was certainly not as bad as Roxbury and sections of Dorchester (where I had to really watch the truck before they broke in and stole stuff, which did and would occur, which never happened in years in Lynn).
Sad to see that now the city gov. is fostering iniquity. May God peradventure grant all "repentance to the acknowledging of the truth." (2 Timothy 2:25)
No worries about pregnancies if you go out with
the Pahlm sisters!
I don’t disagree. In some communities, people who preach “diversity” are generally uninterested in diversity of thought.
The other day, a news reporter asked the Mayor of Boston if he felt like a dinosaur being a white male in the city. The Mayor seemed a bit dazed at the question. The question surrounded the “celebration of diversity” in recently elected officials, i.e. womyn and minorities. Too bad the news reporter didn’t follow with the lack of diversity ion thought since all these diversity types seem to... wait for it … lack diversity of opinion.
At 14, she may be too immature and not ready for sex but she’s probably been sexually active since 12. No, the government shouldn’t be involved but perhaps the parents should be more involved in what their kids are doing.
Maybe the parents (mom AND dad) should start teaching responsibility at an early age.
