Answer 1

Anyone under 18 is too young. Aside from the legal ramifications, young teens rarely have the emotional development necessary to handle all of the responsibilities and issues related to engaging in sexual activity. The body is more than willing, but the spirit is too fragile.

Answer 2

OK first up I do not believe that everyone at her school is having sex. If you brag about it... you ain't doing it. Secondly, I do not believe that she is in love with this boy (cos that is what he is) because she is far too young to know what love is. Thirdly, she is still a little girl. She shouldn't have sex at this age because she is likely to regret it.... especially if he f**ks off the next week.

I think that you need to tell her that virginity is the most precious thing that God has given her (if you are a religious family) or that virginity is something that should not be given away.

If she decides that he is the right person then just let it be known to her that she needs to use a condom to protect her from STIs and pregnancy more importantly! I would rather have an STI than a baby I can't care for... if you know what I mean.

Also tell her that sex isn't the most important thing in a relationship. If this guy respects her then he will wait. I wouldn't be surprised if he is older than her and pressuring her...

Just talk to her in depth and let her know she can talk to you if she needs to...

Answer 3

In most states and countries it is 18. Otherwise it is statutory rape. As far as the individual is concerned it depends upon the person. I have known 14 that handled it better than 20. (By the way it was NOT me they were having sex with). It should be because she is ready for it not because everyone else is doing it. I had a friend that just had to do it because she couldn't face her friends and still be a virgin at 15. Bad reason.

Answer 4

Tell her she will be happier if she waits. Say if you love your boyfriend that much then it is better for her to wait until she is at least 18 so he or her will not get in trouble with the law. 3 years isn't that far away she can wait she has the rest of her life to get in between the sheets with someone. If you have heard of a disease call HPV it causes cervical cancer. And if she doesn't lt him use protection she can get it. You can actually have one partner your entire life and still get that disease. So she needs to be extremely careful. If she get pregnant by him does she have a plan? Is this the person who she wants to actually have kids with? is this person going to be a good parent? is she going to be a good parent? Take her to some teen pregnancy classes. I am sure if you call an obgyn or hospital pediatrics the can direct you to know of where some are.

Answer 5

I think 15 is to young but unfortunately in some cases no matter what you tell them they are going to do it anyway. Tel her it's not worth it. Everyone may be saying they are doing it but they probably aren't and even if they are why should you do it just because someone else is? Like the old saying goes if someone jumped off a bridge would you do it? Once you do it weather you like it or not you can't take it back.

Answer 6

18

Answer 7

The fact that she would base having sex due to pressure from school shows how immature she really is.

You need to tell her how you feel. At 15 years you aren't old enough to understand the ramifications of sex. Sure she knows what STDs, but what about pregnancy? One night stands?

Explain to her that if she wants to have sex, she has to be on birth control first. That's the easiest solution. AND they have to use a condom.

I would rather have her be safe than do it without being safe.

Answer 8

it somewhat is something surprising for the older generations. however the days have replaced, time has replaced and parenting skills as properly through fact the concentration on sexuality. this could be a textile international, the place all needs to climb the ladder of repute, coolness and status. everyone ought to be the no.a million and what enables and attracts the eyes in this era to assist them attain the astounding is money and intercourse. Now permit me inform you , Sigmund Freud replaced into observant of the impression of sexual content. It attracks the eyes and it linked with virtually each thing. only seem at 75% of the commercials. properly lower back to the component, whilst there is this manner of extensive unfold message sent out during the media ( souce of suggestions to ninety 9% of the international) the youngsters all get an identical message. Its COOL for them.

Answer 9

Tell her she will have so much more self respect if she waits. 15 is much too young, and many women who start having sex at a younger age are at a larger risk for STD's and especially HPV (which causes cancer) - Ask her her reasons for wanting to have sex and whether or not her boyfriend is pressuring her. "Everyone is doing it" attitude is common, but there are ways to discuss this with her and whether or not it is love, lust or peer pressure. Try looking at this website for some things to share with her. Good luck!
