And I think of sex and alcohol similarly in this way: I think the later the start, generally the better. Sure, some kids drink or have sex at age 14 and turn out great. But statistics suggest that kids who start drinking at older ages rather than younger tend to have healthier attitudes toward drinking, are less likely to develop problems with alcohol, etc. I have a notion that delaying sex might have similar positive effects overall. I have no statistics at hand to back up that opinion, it is just the view I take. [/quote]

Actually I agree with all of this. I just don't think that "you can't have sex in my house!" stops kids from having sex. It just stops kids from having sex in your house (or at least from having sex in your house with you knowing about it). [/quote]

Oh, I don't disagree. I can't stop my kids from having sex. But that doesn't mean I have to allow them to use their bedroom when I'm home, either. (Which, I might add, would at any rate be EXTREMELY uncomfortable for those of us in smaller houses. Our three bedrooms are located in a 600-square-foot space. I'm already intimately familiar with how awkward this can be, LOL.[/quote]
