Of course, you’re right BD. I don’t disagree with anything you’ve said.

But yes, I was raised “old skool” as they say…lol. And even now thinking back to my teenage years, I would not have wanted *PERMISSION* from my parents to have sex in our home. The key word being “permission.” But teenagers of our generation were indeed having sex in “the comfort of their own homes.”

Hey Truth this was a tough one for me too because of how we were raised. But here is the thing. If a parent tells kids don’t have sex in the house, that is not going to stop them from. They are going to either sneak and do it when the parents are gone or in a car somewhere. Except they might not be smart and not use birth control or protection. So believe me it is something to think about.

In short, I absolutely Agree with this: “Instead of ignoring the issue of teen sex as taboo, some parents are beginning to have real conversations with their kids regarding how to protect themselves from pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. They are talking to their teens about being sexually responsible and not sexually promiscuous.”

“Should parents continue to turn a blind eye?” No, And to do so is foolish.

However, here’s the conflicting part for me……….

“or is it time to be a participant in their teen’s sexual growth and offer them parameters to experiment in the safety and comfort of their own home?”

On this, my answer is also….No.
