[quote=Anonymous]Hi, all...OP here.

Thanks to all who have offered their advice/suggestions/opinions on this (even the ones who pointed out that I should've been more on top of things from the get-go)!

I know a lot of you have expressed a desire for more details, and I imagine the curiosity might be running high. Yesterday was a busy day, to say the least. My daughter and I both took the day off yesterday to talk & take care of the doctor visit, and then her boyfriend came over for dinner last night. Here's where things stand:

- They've been active for approx. 3 months. Sunday was just the first time I walked in on them.
- Only random condom usage up to this point.
- No pregnancy yet. We're currently waiting on STD results from my daughter's tests.
- Boyfriend agreed to talk to his parents last night & get tested as well. We've set up a family dinner this weekend to clear the air.
- They've agreed to a cooling-off period while we work out BC & test results.
- BC: Doctor recommended going either the IUD or implant route; we're considering and have a follow-up on Friday.
- I really appreciated the PP who made the comment about not ever wanting to see his son having sex, and extending the same courtesy. I laid out a similar policy, and my daughter actually had the nerve to give me an "eww!" when I mentioned the possibility of her ever walking in on me having sex. I thought that was ironic, and told her so. We've agreed to a rough "respect each other's privacy" policy for the time being, and I'll see how that goes.

In general, they both know I'm not thrilled about the situation, but since the horse is out of the barn, we're just trying to plot a safe & decent course going forward. That said, dinner with his parents this weekend should be an interesting event.  :roll:

Thanks again for all the support & suggestions. VERY MUCH APPRECIATED![/quote]
