What makes parents think its sex ed, the media, openess to sexuaity, availability to contraception and morning after pills etc.
Lack of a morality system based on a witch burner 9ie caring doctor) or psycho stoning gay abusing cult.
Or sending out any form of 'message'
Ie them thinking condom machines in secondary/high school toilets is somehow saying its ok to have sex rubbish.
Is what influences teenagers to become sexual.
And not er...
* Nature,
* Hormones,
* Ability (ie your good looking, good at seduction/chatting up and getting offers as opposed to ugly and nurdy billy no mates let alone lovvers)
* Feelings Ie you fall in love.
* Need for affection
* The fact u fancy someone or not...
Etc
Or that teens and others are promiscuous not due to some morality thing but as they have the same feelings and needs and desire as someone in a couple but can't find a perfect soulmate so making productive use of the mean time whilst seaching for love

As said the question is more of a why do parents think outside influences ie media are what determines when their kids get sexaul and not their own nature, homones or just wheter they actaully can pull somoen and have met someone thy like...
As for interests in parenting...
seen all the damage, had it done to me and done to others and that the only part of your life that has any imnpotance whatsoever is 14-24. more so 14-18
And cant satnd all the bullshit and illogical emotional led thinking without proof, evidence or reason that causes all this damage...
Ie trying to change the system so it works right and work out why people think in such a loonley tunes way that the evidence clearly shows does not work...
Ie porn does not influence a guy into getting sexaul any more then it would work on a gay guy to turn him stright...
its not the porn its the hormones

Morals is not being a nean and nasty bully...
You can be the biggest porn star in the country and be perfectly moral whiclst be a virgin and have no morals and not a nice person to others.

Parents have the responsibility to guide and teach their kids about good moral values while still teenagers. We are all have the natural universal urges but if already adult we have that freedom of choice between good and evil. A strong and good moral foundation cannot be defeated by any indescent proposals. But I believe being very horny and itchy runs on the genes and hereditary. Its a proven fact. Its a different situation when u are in love. Because love knows no rules.

OK i am a parent and its all part of growing up... yes us parents were young once !!!
I personally think contraception should be readily available for everyone teens and adults alike ...
I think a lot of ppl don't like the idea of their children having sex bcos they are after all their children ...
I think its a case of they don't want their children to rush into thing bcos i mean come on when u first have sex its pretty crap and if u ask a lot of ppl they regret where and with whom they lost their virginity to and they wish they had waited .....
also they dint want their kids risking their youth with unwanted pregnancy's ... All parents just want the best for their kids
People just don't want their children to make the same mistakes that they did that's all but i do agree some ppl go rather ott... it is after human nature and we are just animals !!

i guess the question to start with is whether, generally I mean, your parents are trying to do their best for you or if they're on a power kick and are enjoying ruining your life.
if they mean well, even if they are misguided, then that's an important thing. if they're just out to get you then there's not much point trying to understand them. but assuming they're trying to do the best for you, then think on this -
the urges you get to go and have sex NEVER go away! not when you're twenty one - or when you're seventy one!
so your parents understand that there are urges and hormones and stuff going around with you because they feel it too. not just with each other (if they are together) but with other people.
what changes is a person's ability to control themselves when bombarded with these impulses and hormones - because, as I'm sure you know, there are always consequences to our actions.
hormones make you angry - you get mad at your friends and they stop being your friends. you get mad at school, you get expelled. you get mad at yoru boss and you lose your job. it's the same with sex - strong urges and there are consequences.
if your parents have your best interests at heart, they want you to learn self control. but that is hard to do. many adults never really make it - because there are pressures to say 'just do it'. yes, it's those hormones and urges that come first, but those other influences are not always giving you the best advice. and your parents want to give you time to weigh the different messages you get. they want to give you time to learn self-control. maturity means you can DECIDE what to do rather than being led by base urges alone or by the media, or by anything else.
hope this helps.
Chris.

Parents don't wnat their kids pressured into something they're not ready for. What are their kids not ready for:
Unplanned pregnancies, disrupted lives, no education and a life on the dole. Look around you. See how many lives have been ruined by people who thought they were ready for sex. They weren't ready for pregnancies, abortions, etc etc.
Sex isn't a biology experiement. It can ruin lives. If you want a cuddle, get a dog. Just stay away from my daughter. You're too needy.

Because they want to feel like they can have an influence, a control, over the situation which might help them stop their teens having sex. if they kick up enough fuss about a condom machine and it gets removed they feel like they're doing their bit to protect the teenagers.

Parents believe this because evil power hungry people try to control every aspect of others lives in order to gain more followers/worshipers. I hate to tell you guys but organized religions are the root of all evil. Christians to Muslims and all the rest are the true oppressors of this world.

I'm with you honey, my parents were pretty liberal with issues such as sex and it never encouraged me to have underage sex. My school also taught sex education at various ages, yet I knew few pupils that were having sex as teenagers.
People find it easier to blame the media, teachers etc, than accept responsibility for teaching their children about life

no matter what parents generally love their children. they will try to find an excuse not to blame them in theyre head. this is a reason they can believe, and it makes it not theyre childs fault.
