Parents may or may not be teaching girls they don't have to have sex. You can't tell if they are or not by the behavior of the teen. Teens do respond to the influence of their parents, but not as much as they did when they were nine years old.
This is not to mention the desires of the girl herself, which may be the most determining factor in her behavior after all.
As parents we try to instill morals and a healthy disdain for media influences, especially if they are selling things, but a girl has got to do what a girl has got to do and parents won't stop her if she makes up her mind no matter what it is. Girls engage in many different risky behaviors and it is hard for parents that try to teach them better and then must help girls deal with dire consequences.
Parents should try to use what influence they have AND people should realize a girls actions are her own and not due only to their parents teaching.

Same reason parents don't take care of their own kids, they just throw them into daycare everyday.
Parents are lazy.
They don't make the time to properly guide their children through puberty and maturity, and so when their kid is a crackwhore who has slept with half of their high school (and half of the parent's co-workers), the parents blame the children for being bad kids and never take the responsibility.
I would love to say that the girls have a choice and can conciously make the decision to know that sex with random boys is probably not a good thing... but it's not true. Poor guidance from their parents is the only reason it happens. Kids who were raised by their parents, and not a coorporation designed to entertain your kid without making any special connections to them as individuals, are 1000x more likely to make good decisions concerning sex, and other moral matters.
It's a BIG problem with our society.
I wish I could have a giant loudspeaker and announce: "Don't have children unless you actually WANT to have children, along with all of the responsibilities that come with it. Otherwise, do the world a favor and take some birth control, dumbass."

For the same reason parents aren't teaching teenage boys not to have sex. It goes both ways! If boys weren't out wanting sex, then teenage girls wouldn't be having sex and vice versa.

The parents are offspring of the flower children of the 60's and 70's. They don't consider sex a problem as their parents did or as more modern parents do. It is a generational thing that is a severe problem. Talking with other parents is a good thing. Young people are more informed than we were and as such should look for info on sex and what causes pregnancy and how pregnancy can ruin your life if experienced too early in your life.

Because it's a waste of time.
What parents should be teaching is how to have a meaningful relationship before having sex, about having safe sex, about talking about relationship problems, about difficulties and so on so that the parents can support their young women when things go wrong such as when boys apply emotional blackmail to girls to have sex.

Sigh - and the following in the united kingdom there's a debate about lowering the age of consent, because apparently 0.5 the youngsters will be seen criminals. How a lot decrease do they favor it to be - 6? the conception behind all of it really is that "they are going to do it so it really is perfect to keep away from undesirable pregnancies and ailment". easily, they do it because it really is anticipated that they are going to. no individual says "no - it really is not any longer perfect". The daft component is that the former best Minister of the united kingdom's spouse, a good lawyer, were given her birth control incorrect and had an unplanned infant. Why can we expect little ones to be able to make the mind-blowing judgements relating to birth control? Our society is amazingly sex oriented. it really is anticipated that our young children will be having sex. it really is totally unhappy.

As a parent of a 13 year old daughter I have taught her that you do not have to have sex with boys. I have also instilled her with the truth of God's command for marriage to remain within the marriage. However, I was taught these things growing up and still had pre-marital sex and understand the temptation and from that experience I share with my daughter that the temptation will be there and the decisions she makes now will affect the rest of her life (for ex. I got pregnant with her before marriage). I make her aware that she will make mistakes (nobody is exempt) and that we must always look to God to give us strength to resist temptation as well as avoid situations that would cause us to give into them.

Kids are looking and acting older than they are at a younger age. Parents tend to forget, I think, that their kids are still kids, and not able to make those big scary decisions on their own. My daughter is 10, looks 13, and most of the time, acts 14 or 15. I often forget that she hasn't the life experience to make good decisions. TALK TO YOUR KIDS!!! The burdon of responsibility falls on the parents of boys as well as girls...

The parents are just as screwed up as the teenage girls..AND besides..this day in age..lack morals..
Parents just don't think it's important.. At least those don't. Then you have those that do care and unfortunately you have those kids that do what they feel they should do..LET's not forget about the boys..
We need prayer!

some parents simply dont know how to talk to their children about sex ...which is sad and irresponsible..... but schools should be instilling that by making our children watch KIDS in like 8th grade.... i bet that would scare the sh*t out of alot of little girls.... but daughters also run that rebellion streak around 14 or 15 and will do for the wrong reasons.... like getting back at parents for punishing them for something small.....
...whatever the reason parents need to get on top of that...no pun intended
