Teen sex forum focuses on choices

Freedom consists not in doing what you want, but in the ability to do what you ought.

Trying to get teenagers to practice abstinence would be about as successful as trying to get wolves to be vegetarians.

True but these fanatics would prefer to approach sex as if it is something dirty, and as if adolescents don't have raging hormones.

They need to mind their own business and stop trying to tell the rest of us how to live our lives. No wonder so many young people are leaving the more fanatical sects.

I agree with that but I doubt that these fanatics will ever cease theri actions.

Yes, our youth does have choices, and abstinence is just one of them, as are using condoms -AND- the consequences of each potential choice. Our youth needs to be aware of what can occur. The focus should be more on the consequences of the act and less on the act itself. Abstinence should come from within, a battle between the person and their conscience. If one chooses to use the religious angle, fine, but that's a personal choice, not a societal one.

Hon,did you report the rape when you were 8 years old?What you did after being raped is perfectly understandable.Your children are your most important possession.Don't worry,God is not going to punish you for any of your behavior.I'm sure many of us would like to get our hands on the "man" who raped you.God Bless,****.
