[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I keep seeing free time on here as a reason for kids to have sex, drink ect. Is none concerned that these kids can't seem to entertain themselves without getting themselves into trouble?[/quote]

I wasn’t one that said this but I can see why.

My daughter has several extracurriculars but still managed to have sex, romance, drinking, some drug experimentation. She has high achieving friends who also do this. They are all go go go extroverts….however, she has a lot of friends who don’t seem to have any outside school commitments. What that means is that they are always available. And then you add to the mix an extroverted nature, these kids start to expand their friend groups. They are always available, so this is pretty easy to do, and they are always seeking social occasions. Once the circle widens enough, that element from some part always finds a way in.

[b]Introverted anxious types usually aren’t getting into this stuff, at least not as a young teen[/b]. If they aren’t very busy, they are usually sitting home on their phones. Which, I’m not sure is any better than going out and drinking at a party. Truthfully, I’d rather my teen be dating and having real sex than sexting on snap with a stranger.

I wouldn’t be so sure about this.

-introverted anxious type who was regularly having sex, drinking, smoking pot by age 15.[/quote]

Same. I didn’t have sex until 16 and that was late in my introverted group, but I was smoking/drinking by 14. Going to “third base” by early 15.

I was not popular or cool by any means. I had some great sex though and don’t regret any of it. LOL[/quote]
