But then my oldest (15 at the time) came home from the health clinic one day with a sack full of condoms that they had given to her..
They're both 30-somethin' now, but there's a granddaughter to deal with... Pleeeeeeze make it stop!!  |
I know, it's not easy admitting your daughters will have sex. Hell, I have two little sisters, and the day they come home with boyfriends is the day I'll buy a gun.
But really, denying reality is not a good strategy for dealing with these issues. Teen girls have sex, and there is nothing you can do about that. Promoting abstinence simply does not work, so the only thing you can do is to make sure that they know all there is to know about safe sex, so that when they do decide to have sex, at least they don't get knocked up or infected with some std.
