unless parents plan on chaining their kids to their bedroom til they turn 18, they can only accomplish so much. if a kids wants to have sex, they're gonna have sex no matter what their parents tell them. a good parent can only attempt to mold their child. if they still want to have sex, a parent should go get them birth control..or like I said, chain them to their bedroom til they turn 18, because any attempt will be futile. I'd rather have a 12yr old child having safe sex than unsafe sex. what else are you gonna do, beat the hell out of them cuz they want to have sex?
Honestly it's getting beaten to death, but here are the cliffs.
Cliffs:
Parents: Need to influence their children to make responsible decisions.
Children: Need to exercise
personal responsibility, and weigh out the impact having sex will have on their lives. Hopefully they will make a choice that they deem is the most responsible.
