I think in any continuing conversation with a son or daughter it is important to talk about the importance of being your own person and not be pressured into anything in a relationship or doing so to another be it sex, drugs, alcohol etc.  Letting one know that peer pressure is just a hard part of life at their age.  For a daughter of any age, it is equally important to remind her that drinking or doing drugs can so easily "cloud her judgement" and get her into a situation she would not want.  Also, to be in any compromising situation with  fellow teen - male or female - is always to be putting yourself in an opportunity to be photographed and shared locally or for the world.    Girls can also seem like they are "asking for it" by how they dress at any age, and with younger teens and raging hormones, wardrobe may well help light the fire.  Even in college, the professor's view can be very interesting nowadays from front and rear ....  Given so many clothes for school are trashy today and in appropriate, but again helping a daughter make good choices in what she wears, who she associates with, what she wants to be doing for herself are all a part of  helping her find values and a lifestyle for herself.  And, you do have to have some flexibility - my husband on a bike ride yesterday mentioned some middle schooler was at the bus stop with blue hair!!
