Holy cow the punishment, sure seems to exceed the crime in this case. Hope he gets it bargained down to something reasonable.
It depends imo; I wouldn't necessarily call it the lowest common denominator. You don't want teens having sex with anyone with a pulse, but I don't think that's very common. I personally don't see a problem if teens fool around with-have sex with someone they've been dating for a while and that they trust. It's more important that they're doing it with someone they trust and are using protection. So I think we need to be more strict (as a culture because I think parents as a whole are good) with guys' sexuality and what is acceptable and less strict with girls' sexuality and what is acceptable
Pretty much my feelings as well. Personal preference would be for my kids to have all been married before losing their virginity...the boys AND the girls. Practical mom knowledge told me that would be unlikely, so I did my best to encourage the relationship aspect over the one night stands, and made sure they knew how to be safe. At some point young people are going to make their own decisions. I wanted my kids to make informed decisions.
On a more positive note, kind of a good evening. Got home from work and Mrs00 was cooking, needed no help, so the boys, hund and I went for a walk on the trail near our house. Got back just as she was getting done, and then we all took dinner down to the house of a new couple from church who just had a baby. 4 weeks premature, I guess, but he's home. Only down side is they live 4 houses from us, moved in last summer, and we just met them tonight. Was kind of cool to bring them dinner, though, paying it forward from people who brought us stuff when little00 was born. Mrs00 signed up for this thru church, kind of a neat thing.
Nope - more of an observation that girls are perceived as "slutty" but boys are "just sowing their wild oats". If the girls who engage in sex with multiple partners are sluts, why aren't the boys? Intercourse takes two...
Most teenage boys, sex only involves one.
They would hump a tree knot if they could.
Cant be with them all the time, just hope to guide them.
