What age should I let my daughter have sex at?

Question

Shes 11 now

Answer 1

please tell me this question is a joke? how about when she's married?!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 2

After marriage.

This is the time when you should be discussing growing up, and responsibility. Helping her make decisons on a high school, and building a close relationship that will see you both through the teen years.

You want to give your daughter the best, most responsible assistance and direction you can, not help her begin thinking about adult matters.

There is a time for everything. This is not the time to begin to decorate the nursery for a grandchild...It's the time to help your daughter through the maze of things to do, and be, and try, (none of them are sex or sex-related).

Guide your daughter to right relationships, friends, and through other major decisions. You want to have a daughter you can trust to do the right thing as she goes through this 11th year of her life, and grows older. If you don't put the right info in, you can't expect right results.

Help her be the one who does the right thing, the one who has made her mind up that no matter what others her age do, sex is for her wedding day.

Let her enjoy being a child while she is one.
Hope this helps.

Answer 3

what kind of question is this? at 11 yrs old you shouldnt be thinking about what age your daughter should be having sex, you should be thinking what type of activities should you and your daughter do together. WHat high school should I enroll her in, not what age she should be allowed to have sex. BTW its not by YOUR permission when she can have sex. Ignorance is not bliss. Unfortunantly some girls grow up with parents who think that they can have sex when they allow them to, not wait till its a proper time. ie: when they get married, when the right guy comes along, when they are mentally ready. what are parents thinking these days. Let her be a child when she grows up she will make the desicion when she is ready.

Answer 4

Don't put an age on it. People develop at different rates. Your daughter, physically and emotionally, may be at 18 what another girl is at 20. Or at 15.

Your emphasis should be that sex is something she understands the implications of. You should definitely start talking to her about the mechanics of sex, as well as the emotional implications, right now. Let her know that she can talk to you. Then, when the time comes that she's starting to think about having sex, you can decide together whether that age is the right time.

Answer 5

I would say at least 18 you should let you daughter to have sex
Talk to her about it
Take her to an Ob/gym when she is 15/16
If she needs birth control, she has a doctor
Also tell her that sex is a piece of her
She should not have sex with being in love
Tell her if she does, she have to all of these things to not to get pregnant
1. Go to doctor and get birth control
2.. Never have sex without an condom (for pregnancy and STD)
2. Always use a spermicide
Good luck

Answer 6

There isnt an age in which you"let" your daughter have sex. She will determine that on her own. The best thing to do is to educate her about sex, and tell the truth. Teach her the facts about STD's, Pregnancy, birthcontrol and such. Teach her to make mature decisions in her life and let her know that she can come and talk to you about anything.

Answer 7

You should be encouraging your daughter to wait until marriage, but you also need to be informing - allow her to ask questions make her feel comfertable to talk to you about sex, because you want her to be informed by you and not some other little kids! Your baby girl will grow up and get curirous about sex, but they willl also get curirous about smoking and drinking that dosent mean you put the ciggeratts in their hands! Let her know its okay to say no, and I would also be honest with her about your first time, because like most of us our first time was painful, and awkward.

I hope this helps good luck with "the talk"!!

Answer 8

whether you let her, or not shes going to do what she wants. you can't always be there. the best thing to do is make sure she is protected you should get her birth control, just b/c you do this doesn't mean she going to go wild. you should educate her about sex, and std's, and boys period. if you establish a good communication with your daughter during these times she won't ask her friends about sex, they don't know any more than she does, so it's best if she came to you. parents make the mistake thinking its the schools responsibility to teach kids about sex, when parents should step up. i recommend a birth control that is not daily just in case she forgets. kids start earlier and earlier and a lot of people are blind to the fact that their boys and girls know about this stuff, from t.v, friends, internet. it is better to be safe then sorry.
good luck

Answer 9

My daughter started at 7

Answer 10

when she feels ready. When she is able to sit down, comfotably with you and talk about it maturely, discuss the responsibilities, the risks, how she is going to protect herself, and who she is going to be doing it with. I would start talking to her about sex now, dont make it seem like something that is a bad thing, because that will shy her away, and she wont talk to you about it. Make her comfortable about the topic, that way when the time comes she can sit with you, and discuss it like an adult. You cant keep her from doing it, but the next best thing is to talk to her, help protect her from STD's and get her birth control when she is ready to ingage. Be her support, and guide her in the right direction, making it seem like a bad thing that she can do and it is so bad, will make her want to do it more.

Answer 11

My mom was always open and honest with me, and answered all our questions about sex truthfully. I say talk to her, and keep her informed. Dont shy away from "grown up" words, becuase you'll just be short-changing her. My mom always made it clear that we made our own decisions, but that she preferred that we wait until we graduated high school. That was when she lost hers, and she told us that too, and that it was to a boy she really liked and respected, and who respected her. She also added (when we were a bit older) that it hadnt been very long after graduation, but thats all the counted, lol. Pick the age when you lost it, or feel confident that she will be adult enough to make her own decision, and offer that as a good option, keep her informed, and make sure she knows that you arent going to try to control her choice in this, and that she can always come to you with questions or if she wants to talk. My mom and I had a very open relationship, and I told her when I lost my virginity, and we still talk about sex and just about everything else. I think the key to good relationships with your kids is to not try to control them, but guide them. You're the mom, and its up to you what you would like to instil in your child. Just do it gently, and chances are they'll go along with it. But please please make sure she is well educated about herself and sex, dont leave it up to the schools and their questionable sex "education"
