I'm not a liberal either - I am also not a grandmother.  My daughter was on the pill when she was sixteen.

PS what you "allow" and they do are two very different things.  [/quote]
If you raise them right they won't even think to disobey you.[/quote]

Said the grandparent  in their 40's.[/quote]

I don't agree with the whole "if you raise them right, they wouldn't dare" but I do think being raised in faith matters. Now I'm not saying that you can raise them in faith and sit idly by thinking they wouldn't possibly have sex until marriage; you still have to educate them re safe sex etc. But I think it's less likely if they are raised in faith (and truly believe -- which is the tricky part bc there's lots of people who are raised by religious parents, required to go to church etc. but don't really "care" about faith either way until whenever it clicks for them -- maybe that happens at age 15 and then you've lucked out with a kid who wouldn't jump into bed; but maybe it happens at age 35 and they've slept with many others by that point or maybe -- like most of this site -- they never choose to believe).[/quote]
