[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a private school that for a homework assignment requires kids to go to a local CVS and purchased condoms and provide the receipt to the teacher. The point is - if you are uncomfortable buying condoms - you might want to think twice about if you are ready to have sex. I know many will talk about the injustice of the assignment - but if nothing else, it gets the kids talking.[/quote] Troll[/quote] On that note, I made my son do this when he was a young teen. If I remember correctly I think I made him buy condoms and tampons while I watched from the aisle to ensure he did it. He wasn't embarrassed and didn't care but I wanted to make sure. I also had condoms available in the bathroom cabinet and had many discussions about birth control. The discussions were not like I hope you don't do that but if you do, but more like I expect you will be doing this and taking precautions needs to be part of the plan. With that said I didn't allow private time with girlfriends in my house during high school. Had I had a girl I would have put her on the pill or IUD to "regulate her period." I wouldn't want any teenage carelessness getting things off track for my kid [/quote]
