[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are letting a 14 yr old date in the first place? This is what an 8th grader? [/quote] Insanity that this is normalized.[/quote] Normalized is different than addressing the reality. My DD is 11 and I’m horrified at OP”s post but not naive so am reading this thread. A quick google search shows that by age 15 20% of American girls have had sex. That’s not normal, aka the majority, but it’s also a pretty significant number. OP has a series of choices. Yes, maybe one of them is to readdress sexual activity and encourage her child to reconsider future sex until she’s older, but since it’s happening the primary choice is about whether to help her daughter prevent pregnancy and disease, or to ignore and deny. It’s not exactly like OP is happy about this. https://www.guttmacher.org/fact-sheet/american-teens-sexual-and-reproductive-health[/quote]
