[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My teens know that dating is not allowed.  They are focussed on academics, ECs, social life etc. They are not latchkey kids [b]and our lives revolve around our children. [/b] So, no boyfriend or girlfriend until they are in college.

Now, since we are not White and come from a culture of arranged marriages, it is quite possible that our children are unable to find someone to marry on their own.  Well, the solution to that is that if they have great career and have a good income, there is no lack of choices for them.  Finding a good match and having it all is not a pipe dream. But, first - study hard and make something of your life.  Nurture the friends and relatives in your life.  Treat the world well.  [/quote]

Funny thing is you think this is a good thing and time and time again it is linked to immature growth, lack of street smarts, poor autonomy, severe lack of communication skills, and extremely high anxiety and silent depression.

But straight A's and no sex is all that matters!!  Great job  :roll: [/quote]

And time and time again, teen sex has led to teen pregnancy, welfare, poor financial outcomes, child abuse, dissatisfaction with life, anxiety, and depression.

Bit you think teens having sex is all that matters!!  Poor job[/quote]

[b]There is no one on DCUM that is gonna have a teen that gets and stays pregnant.  Give me a break  :lol: [/b]

And giving your kids autonomy doesn't mean that equals sex.  It's your fear which is why you put them in a chokehold to do nothing.   If you communicate and trust and teach your kids to be adults before they leave college, they are much better off.

The amount of kids leaving college crying home to mommy before one semester over is insane.  They can't cope because they don't have Mommy to guide them. [/quote]

Awww...GOP has taken away the rights to abortion in most states.  Is this a third world country??[/quote]
