[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's none of my child's business. And I say this as someone who is REALLY close to my daughter. But I'm not her best friend. I think she doesn't really want to know anyway. You can't unlearn that info and there's no right answer. [/quote]

This. Some things I answer, like she asked if I ever had a miscarriage because they are studying sexual health and reproduction. That I answered. Once she asked something about age of sexual activity and I said that was none of her business. [/quote]

The "none of her business" approach seems cold and not smart to me. If your DD is asking, they are clearly trying to gauge what we as the mother thinks is okay (what we thought was okay for ourselves) and for her. If you refuse to tell her what age you lost your virginity for example, I would assume she will think you lost it very young (her current age or younger). [/quote]

I agree with this.  The teen's reaction will be either you lost it very young and you are ashamed of this, or you were a complete loser and lost it...how old is your teen?  subtract her years + 9 months assuming she is the oldest in the family.
