Answer 1

Hi there,

yes I agree it is gross - I mean they are children at that age and have absolutely no idea of the consequences of such actions.

I will make sure that when my kids are that age they will not be doing these things and the reasons why......... alot of it comes from the way they are being brought up and the values that society has ie teenage magazines full of sex etc......

The age at which youngsters "do it" has been coming down over the last two or three generations.There is a lot of pressure on them from the media and their peers to have boy and girl friends and to act as though they were adults.A youngster of say 15 without a regular friend is considered as not being normal. The only real defence against this is for the child to have a very close relationship with their parents and lots of respect so that the last thing they would do is anything that would upset the parents. By all means at 15 girls and boys should have friends of the opposite sex, but the emphasis is on friends . The sexual bit should be delayed for another couple of years and full precautions taken to prevent pregnancy or transmitted disease.The relationship between parents and children is the biggest factor in raising the youngsters personal pride and esteem which will see them make the right decisions when the time comes.

Answer 3

Its very sad that they feel its ok to be doing this
at such a young age, when i was 12, 13, 14 i didn't even THINK about things like that, i was more interested in having girley sleepovers and stuff but that was they way i was bought up!

my cousin is 15 and she told me she had sex, i was mortified and asked if her mum knew, she said "yeah, my mum said i can do it so long as i'm careful" i thinks thats just madness to actually allow a 15-year-old to have sex!

my son is only three but i really hope that he doesn't start doing these things! it's not just girls who need to worry, if a guy getsa girl pregnant then he is also responsible, be it money or what ever!

there are so many more cases of STD's now becaus kids just don't understand the risks! ok they can go on the pill and not get pregnant but i don't think many realsie that the pill doesn't stop them from getting STD's

it's so sad they want to grow up so fast! i'm proud to say i'm 22 and have only ever done it with my hubby!

i thought i was young having a baby at 18, even though i am now married and comfortable money-wise i still thought it was young but kids are having babies at 14, 15, 16 these days! - such a sad waste of life!!!!!!

Answer 4

Well yeah its wrong, but to be fair i started sleeping with my husband same age at 14, and now we have been together 14 years and married 8 years, so its not always the worst thing in the world. We have 2 kids and another on the way and all where planned.

Sleeping around with just anyone, that is wrong, but you need to let your kids grow up and learn from there own mistakes.

And yes i have 2 daughters.

Answer 5

I know this might not be the most popular answer but hundreds of years ago girls were getting married at 12, 13, and 14 years old and having children... The fact that they have their menses means their body is capable/ready for childbirth. Yes, folks - that's the whole reason for the menstrual cycle - childbirth; hence sexual intercourse.

Now, today's 12, 13, and 14 year olds are clearly not ready for "sex" and aren't even mature enough to watch themselves or be left alone for that matter.

What's disgusting and ridiculous is that these kids are able to do it - because there's no parental supervision! Parents need to PARENT their children.

Answer 6

These kids at this age are going through puberty and are justgiving into thier wild hormones not because they wnt to grow up so fast. It is just a weakness to give in to the sexual urge. And sometimes it is out of rebellion to draw attention to them from thier parents. It is not always the parents fault because at this age kids are making thier own decisions whether right or wrong. They are exploring. It is ver important for parents to open up about sex and the packages that come with having sex. Most parents do not explain thoruoghly about sex so the kids explore for themselves.

Answer 7

You are right,.. when this happens and these kids are doing what they are doing, this reflects on the parents not talking about important things, and being so ignorant that they think sex is a taboo issue, education, information is the best weapon you can give your kids. Is not that they want to grow faster, it's because they don't have any proper information on this, it' curiosity, and by being ignorants about the details, they just want to try. It's not right, though because as you say, humans need to grow at their level, so we can avoid problems later. But sadly, out there we stll deal with parents that don't know or play they don't know about these issues.

Answer 8

Disgusting...I don't know whether I'd use that word, because to do so implies that those kids who are having sex are themselves disgusting, when they aren't. I do think it's incredibly sad and something that society as a whole should be aware of and trying to prevent. We need to look at why it is happening in order to do something about it.

Just look at the media for example, everything is sex, sex, sex. No wonder children are become sexual at a young age when everything around them is sexualised. I mean look at some of the clothes for little girls (I'm talking eight years old), there's g-strings and knickers and bra's with provocative pictures or logo's on them. That's just wrong!

The most popular selling doll at the moment is those horrible Bratz dolls with make up and sexy clothing, and they are marketed to the prepubescent market.

We are teaching children that to be sexual is the ultimate desirable marker to achieve, that to be sexual is to be grown up. We are teaching girls that their highest value is as a sexual object. Why then are we surprised when they take that education and act upon it by going and having sex?

Answer 9

Hell yes, its ridiculous. They're going for negative unhealthy attention. I was told by a counselor that just because my daughter is a teen doesn't mean that I treat her as an adult. Not until she is one. I still have to give her limits and rules and guide her just as I did when she was 7. I don't dress her, but I sure as hell wont let her dress like a **** or date alone (no going to boys houses). Kids these days are not given the limits that we were given. But if I need to be an evil *****, then I'll be one before my daughter gets pregnant!

Answer 10

I can't understand why they think it's ok, they do seem to be in such a hurry to grow up and they really don't think of the consequences.

My daughter is 11 and I would hate to think of her being in too much of a hurry to have sex. We talk about it and she thinks it's disgusting at the moment so I'm happy to hear that!!!!
