[quote=Anonymous]Be picky about the men you bring home. Rate of (sexual) abuse with a non bio parent in the home is higher. All those "boyfriends" may be leaving your room and going into your daughters. Be careful of running about trying to find male father figures. These men may not be trustworthy. If your family of origin is dysfunctional, now is the time to draw the line (lose their phone numbers). Also, be open about sex and about [u]birth control[/u]. Many stats show a strong association between teen pregnancy and absent fathers. And evidence suggests that girls with stepfathers engage in sexual behavior even earlier. http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn3724-absent-fathers-linked-to-teenage-pregnancies.html . Just saying. Be careful. [/quote]
