Your poor children. I hope someone tells them that their mother is a narcissist and batshit crazy.
It's the kind of parent who drives girls to get pregnant to have someone to love. No love at home.

I'd argue that our society demonstrates that the "science" is wrong. Half of all marriages end in divorce. Women abort 20% of all pregnancies. Just two sobering statistics, not to mention all the tremendous suffering, heartache and abuse which occurs in "adult" relationships. No, I'm certainly not placing the blame entirely on teenage sexual relationships, but in my opinion they do not help the situation. Instead, serious teenage sexual relationships teach us to rely more heavily on the bond of sex (ie, the good feelings of sex) and dissociate that from the very real responsibilities and sacrifices of adult relationships. Then we wonder why men treat women like sex objects and are often incapable of commitment and supporting women emotionally.
Half of all marriages do not end in divorce.
Not all teen romantic relationships involve sex.
With any luck a teen's parents have been modeling a good marriage for years. That's critical, but I'm sure it's not the majority.
But guidance along the way is critical, too.

That's okay. They can do it at my house.

I suggest they wait until the parents are out to dinner.
THIS! They are in school, presumably home before parents. Or parents will be gone at some point. I don't think its necessarily super disrespectful but I do think its odd and that its reasonable that others might feel disrespected if you say, had to be aware of when your relatives are having sex while you are in the same home. I don't really think this changes for adults either. I couldn't imagine having sex at my siblings or parents homes other than before bed or in the morning before leaving the bedroom because I just think its odd to be banging it out while my dad is sitting upstairs eating a sandwich.
I'd be proud of her for being responsible and ask that she keep something she wants to stay private for a time when they have privacy in the home.

This is also the case in the United States with varying levels of complexity due to state legislation, HIPAA, and the Affordable Care Act. But as a general statement- teens can get birth control without parental consent in the US.
