It’s a key issue…sex
and teens. It’s a topic that urgently
needs to be discussed. Obviously, parents don’t want to have to deal with this
issue, but the bottom line is you must discuss it with your teen. You have to
evaluate what’s going on and let them know about potential risks and problems.
It’s very important that teenagers be treated as adults. You have a golden
opportunity to explain to your teen the potential problems that can occur, and
that early sex can lead to serious lifelong issues; not only sexually
transmitted diseases, but the potential of responsibilities, like unwanted
pregnancy, that will be difficult to deal with.
We always
appreciate your comments.
