I am only 22 and obviously have alot to learn, but from when I was in high school, my group of friends where all brought up different and al had different views on sex.. these are made up names....Jessy, parents said that if sex was happening she would be kicked out of the house, she had sex and had her first baby when she was 16, i asked her why she didn't use birth control she said her doctor said you needed parental permission, she still to this day has no job.. hasn't finished high school and is living with her wonderful parents with the baby, her parents were almost retired. Ashley, with a a high school sweetheart for 5 years, parents never talked about sex with her, but got her birth control as she said it was to get rid of her so called acne, she and her boyfriend are still together plan to get married and they have a 6 month year old little boy. Chrisy... is still a virgin and says she will stay that way till marriage, parents were open and honest with her about sex and she chose that decision for her self. Allison, parents didn't speak to her about sex, and she is wild, no babies, but she has STD, with her it was too many people( male and female)... My story, first person I had sex WITH was my high school sweet heart of 3 years, my mom was so open when talking to me about sex it freaked me out, but i thank her now, i have not had many sexual partners and I am now married to the most amazing man in the world. The point of my story is every teen is different, and the discussion they have or don't have with their parents are different, and the results again are different . please talk to to your kids about sex, get them the birth control that they need, and be honest with your teens, I thank my Mom to this day for how she helped me.
