[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [i]My daughter is one such example. She has had a bf for over a year and they both are in agreement of not having sex before marriage. Its a personal choice and while mainstream media might play it up that its "the thing to do" I assure you many kids are not sexually active at 16. So lets be realistic here. So, not ALL the horses have left the barn:)
[/i]
I am guessing your horse HAS left the barn, and does not want to tell you about it because she knows you don't believe in premarital sex and she badly wants you to believe she will not have sex in any fashion before marriage. She does not want to be perceived as immoral or bad, in your eyes.

Many of the parents who don't like thinking about their kids having premarital sex are people who [i]did[/i] have premarital sex themselves, and have decided their kids need to be held to a higher standard than they were able to achieve. It creates some weird family communication and alot of deception and silence around something that should be an open conversation topic with your children, for their physical and emotional health.

I am by no means in the no sex before marriage crowd, but this is ridiculous. I don't know about PPs daughter, but not all teens with boyfriends have sex. It's kind of ridiculous fom you to assume you know more about eve single child in that group than people who actually know them.[/quote]
