Saturday, June 25, 2011 3:56:26 PM My parents were so open minded they even bought my condoms for me. Which saved me money. They weren't open minded enough to get why I wanted strawberry flavoured ones. I had to explain that one.  |

Friday, June 24, 2011 10:35:57 PM I don't think it really matters...They are going to have sex either way. I guess the best pro to teenagers doing it at their own home is that they will have access to condoms (If they have some, which they should!) and this way they aren't screwing in public and running the chance of getting caught. .-. My parents are very open and reasonable with this. I can have sex in the house. There are just two conditions. I don't do it while they are home (and they really do not want to know about it) and I use protection and act responsible. Those are both fine by me and so far it has worked out great. So I really don't see what the big deal is :/ |

Friday, June 24, 2011 5:27:21 PM for all that us brits have a reputation for being awkward and straight laced, americans have a bizarre relationship with sex. it's NATURAL. as long as th people r mature enough to know what they're doing and the potential consequences thereof, let them do it! my parents have always been really open about it and educated me and my siblings. i think let them make their own decisions, as long as they know wha |

Friday, June 24, 2011 1:31:20 PM Teenagers are always going to have sex and to ignore that is pure stupidity. They're hormonal and out of control. Give them a condom, birth control, and let 'em go wild. The reason why teen pregnancy is so bad is because no one will teach them how to be safe. Cramming abstinence into a teenager's head is like asking a dog not to hump your leg. They can't help it. |

Friday, June 24, 2011 1:26:58 PM @Baalthazaq Good point, and that's exactly why teenagers should be taught how to use a condom correctly! It's also why they should be taught to use the pill and emergency contraceptives as a back up method. If a condom breaks or comes off, and they're not on birth control as a back up, then there is always good old plan B. Unplanned pregnancy is 100% preventable with the proper precautions and there's no need to be celibate.

Friday, June 24, 2011 12:38:16 PM I agree- no debate. Of course you allow your teenagers to have sex in your house. You will not stop them doing it, all you will do is pretend it is not happening. If your children can bring their partners home they may actually think about their partners... this is a conversation people should be having from when their children first begin to even think about sex. |

Friday, June 24, 2011 7:50:35 AM how in hell is this even a discussion? how is there more than one opinion about this? how much of a douche bag parent would you have to be to kick your kid out of the home for when they are having sex? why would you think that sex is something that could be compared to taking drugs? why would you think sex is a bad thing? there are so many questions coming to my mind when i hear these morons saying they don't want to have they kids have sex at home! it doesn't show respect towards home? where the F*CK did you have sex when you conceived your kid then? I smell so much hypocrisy and douche baggery here it blows my mind! |

Friday, June 24, 2011 7:39:15 AM Hm. Interesting. I've had both situations: A boyfriend whose parents allowed us to do whatever we wanted in their house, and a boyfriend whose parents wouldn't let us close the bedroom door. And guess what? We had the same amount of sex. Safe and healthy sex. Not in any nasty hotels (like we could afford that). Horny teenagers sure do get creative. I also don't buy this 'sex in the home is likely to be safer'. That sh*t is all up to you. Dudes are going to give the 'Aw baby don't you trust me...' speech whether you're in a bed in his house or the back seat of his Mommy's borrowed minivan. |

Friday, June 24, 2011 7:33:28 AM I love how everyone is talking about sex as just a purely physical thing. No one ever considers the emotional side of premarital sex (no matter what you believe about religion). |

Friday, June 24, 2011 7:28:38 AM I smell hippies, dirty dirty hippies. Using the excuse "Their going to do it anyways, may as well be at home" is one of the stupidest things you can say. Just swap from sex to drugs, alcohol or even the more extreme of guns. Would this still sound like a good idea? Well if their going to shoot up heroin it may as well be at home where it is safe. Well if their going to get drunk it may as be at home where it is safe. Well if their going to shoot off guns, may as well be at home where it is safe. I was drinking and doing drugs at home from the age of 12 under the excuse it was better to do it at home. Now that I'm an adult, it would of been far better for me to wait till I was out of the house. I don't even drink anymore cause I don't want to turn out miserable like my parents. |

Friday, June 24, 2011 7:19:09 AM I agree...difficult subject. Anything that's bad for you is "better" if you do it in a controlled manner, but does that mean that we should be accepting of it? If I had kids, I could also ban my kids from taking drugs, yet if my kids were already doing drugs behind my back, I'd prefer it if my kids were taking drugs in a controlled, sterile environment and was on an educational program to understand the dangers of addiction. |

Friday, June 24, 2011 5:33:33 AM tommy2x4 ... you completely missed the point. Sex at home means sex under controlled conditions WITH contraception... Not somewhere in a car some random place in secrecy... The point is exactly that kids dont have kids... |

Friday, June 24, 2011 5:32:38 AM This is a really difficult subject I think. I'm a 17 year old girl brought up from a fairly Christian background and my mum has 'banned' me from having sex. I still do it anyway because it's my own decision but I know that it would never ever be permitted in our home. It's a shame really because like those teenagers said I probably wouldn't feel comfortable if my parents were encouraging me to have a boyfriend stay round and have sex with him, I'd prefer it if my parents would atleast let a boyfriend stay over and trust me not to have sex with them at home because I wouldn't actually do it, I respect that they wouldn't want me to have sex in the house and yeah it would be pretty weird having them so close by... |

Friday, June 24, 2011 5:21:02 AM It should be completely up to the parents until the kid is an adult - but that's only in a perfect world lol. |

Friday, June 24, 2011 4:09:15 AM This is a dumb discussion. If my parents didn't let me have sex in my bedroom when I was younger, I'd kick them out of the house. (Not that I ever asked them if I could). Sex exists. Everyone does it. Your son and daughter will do it anyway. So, is it better if they do it in public places / spend money on a hotel / do it uncomfortably in a car, or at their home? I had one girlfriend parents would only let me sleep over when we had to get up very early in the next morning to family weddings and such, and would spend the whole night monitoring if we still were in separate bedrooms. Why did they thought they could avoid us having sex in the house? Of course they couldn't. |

Friday, June 24, 2011 12:15:44 AM @Baalthazaq: The pill is easier to use properly than a condom (just put it on your nightstand and take it when you get up in the morning), is around 99% effective or better, and might even give the young lady the perk of lighter, easier periods. True it doesn't stop STDs, but if we're talking about two people who know each other and not strangers having one-night stands, it doesn't matter. |
