[quote=Anonymous]My DS and DD are in college. I did hope that they would not be sexually active in high school (or before age 18). They weren't (and yes, I'm sure -- or very close to it!). With the configuration of my house (I'm a single parent) I do allow them to have girlfriend/boyfriend visits (neither lives in this area). And since I'm on the main floor it's a "don't ask/don't tell" policy. I feel very comfortable with it myself. Each has been in a relationship for 20 months +. Beyond a certain age -- whether that's 16, 17, 18, or whatever -- I think it's much more important that the first experiences are good ones (than the age itself). And, I have to hope that the fact that my son is "a relationship kind of guy" -- as he reported that he once explained to a young lady at college who asked him his intentions, then replied: "relationships don't work -- but we can still party together" -- has something to do with the values transmitted to him at home![/quote]
