[quote=Anonymous]I'm very open with my kids about sex.  I've asked them to wait until they're at least 18 (legally adults) and in monogamous, committed relationships before choosing to have sex, though of course it's up to them to follow my guidelines or not.

Both of my older daughters didn't have sex until they were freshmen in college, and my son is still a virgin entering his sophomore year in college (he also hasn't dated, but that's another issue altogether).  My youngest child is only 15 and isn't allowed to date until 16, but she isn't interested in dating right now.  It's extremely helpful for the younger kids to see the older kids abide by our shared value system.

Re: sleepovers, my college daughter has had her boyfriend over a couple of times, but he sleeps on the couch downstairs.  When my daughter is at his house, she's in his room and he's on the couch (per his mother).  I understand they're having sex in the dorm or wherever, but I don't condone them sleeping in the same bed in this house at this point.[/quote]
