[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish I had been prepared with what I really wanted to say, which was that she should be much older and in a long term relationship with someone she loves - and who loves her. This person should be loyal, kind, and only have her best interests at heart.  She should never be afraid to say no, and if the other person is upset by that, then it's the wrong person.

She should also be emotionally mature enough to plan on having safe sex, always.

It's not too late to go back to her in a quiet moment and say, "you know, I was thinking more about your question the other day, and there's some more things I want you to know." And then tell her what you told us.

Remember that you'll have a series of conversations with her, so you don't have to say it all perfectly the first time, but I'm sure you'll be glad to have started sharing.

OP here - thanks.  This is exactly what I did and we had a really good talk.  I waited until we were alone in the house, just the two of us, and just told her all of the above.  She seemed to get what I was saying, but you're right - this is merely the first in what will probably be several similar conversations, esp. as she gets older.  [/quote]

Could you please share more details about what was discussed?[/quote]
