[quote=Anonymous]My dad said the same, if you come home pregnant, you aren't staying here. He had significant issues about me looking pregnant, always telling me to "suck it in" and beyond mad when I was given the role of Elizabeth in the church play. I didn't have a boyfriend until 18, he was a terrible guy. I used the rhythm/pullout method and got pregnant. I had just received my student loan funding and was about to start college, I went to my abortion by myself.

Honestly I don't want my kids to become my problem should they cause a pregnancy. I'm tired. I can't do a baby or really any layer of responsibility beyond what I have.

I would definitely have them use 2 kinds of birth control and really try to bring home the cause and effect responsibilities of our actions overall. And I don't think sex should be normalized for kids just because they want it. Toddlers want candy and we don't let them because it's not good for them and we understand they don't understand that.

I know that's not the best example. But there's lots of things kids aren't allowed to do because they're kids. Maybe you can't stop it in every way, and that's why all the talks matter. But you can definitely stop it in some ways.

I don't want my kids to go through what I did. But I also don't want to deal with the issues that come with sexual relationships in immature teenagers. [/quote]
