It's in the parents as well as the child best interest to explain why sex is not something you just do without being aware of all the ramifications which can cause them a lifetime of struggles. I am happy you and your niece waited. <br /><br />My oldest daughter was a really tough one, she was zealous about having her first boyfriend, and One day she came and told me I wish I would have waited! Now that's she 25, she have seen first hand how life changes after you have given up your virginity. I too wish she had of waited, because like you said she just wasn't as ready as she thought! But she is a very smart girl doing well for herself. She will among the many who want to become a wife in due season shall find love.<br /><br />I really enjoy all your comments and Thank You for being a diligent Followers!By Sisterhoods Bookclubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15869758302517680100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8599435526144030034.post-24667613623919573802012-04-23T16:39:32.612-07:002012-04-23T16:39:32.612-07:00Good message. It is always better for young girls ...Good message. It is always better for young girls to wait. Yes sexual desire awakens at puberty but teenagers are not emotionally or psychologically able to handle the ramifications of sex. Of course for young women the other part of the equation is unwanted pregnancy, interruption of school and serious life changes. <br /><br />I was raised in a different time period so I can't compare my experiences to kids today, however my parents did not allow me to date until I was 17 and then my Dad chaperoned all the dates!! So no opportunity for sex!! I was an adult about to go into the Army before I had sex. Actually I remember the doctors at Ft. Hamilton laughing at me during my pelvic exam because I was still a virgin at age 18. Maybe I was shamed into act! Anyway it was very painful and no fun. I went home and took a bath. I knew I had done something wrong. However I dared not become mouthy. Edward & Mable Palmer would have knocked me out!!<br /><br />As for my 17 year old niece, she goes out with her friends but does not want children. I still believe she is a virgin. From her mother and some of her girlfriends she has seen how being oversexed ruins a girls life and unwanted babies make life very hard. Thank goodness she learned from other girls experience not first hand. Anyway she will be going to college in September and I hope she waits until she's married or at least 22+<br /><br />All I can say is be truthful with you kids. Explain everything. Times have changed since the 1970s. Be upfront and don't be ashamed to discuss any type of sex related topics. Better your kids hear it from you than from the streets.Dancing Palmtreeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10817747940242237497noreply@blogger.com
