Sex in a Teenager's Bedroom? What say you?

Will the kids have the maturity to use protection (i.e. condoms and the pill) so that they don't conceive a kid or get herpes? Will their hearts be broken? It seems inevitable, don't you think? Will one kid secretly tape/photograph another and post it on social media(this happens with alarming frequency and the internet is forever and can particularly ruin a girl's chances for a solid future)?

Remember, your kid's young, but when the time comes, the issue will remain: if you allow your kids to have sleepovers &/or sex in their room, will you be ready to raise the grandkid created from such an event?

Only you can answer these questions.

It's happened before and will happen again.

Right... but the point here is not: should my kids have sex or not. It's: should they have it under my roof or not.

If I raise my children right they will not have sex before they are ready for it. If I do a super awesome job they will wait until they are married. I clearly failed as a parent if my kids end up having sex when they are 13...
