"those who watch a high level of sexy television are twice as likely to be pregnant"
To all parents –step it up! The lack of awareness parents bring into the household will greatly effect young teens on how they think or why certain things should not be done (like being a single, broke, pregnant student at 16). If my parents had known half the things i watched during my teen years they would probably have ten heart attacks. Just sit your kids down – show them the other side of the coin of being in bed with someone you're almost certain to be forever with: pregnancies, STDs, financial instabilities and how it can affect their mood (im always pretty sad when im broke).
Love is the most beautiful thing in this world, so don’t waste it at 16, to be able to provide the healthiest and safest environment for a child is to be at your most mature level of stability in all aspects of your life, and every parent knows that kind of maturity does not and will not happen at 16.
Most my blame goes out to the parents, and the children can sing

I completely agree with this post! It does start within the home, and teachings of right and wrong should come from the parents. And it should definitley start at a young age ( but not too young). Parents shouldn't be afraid to talk with their kids about these important issues regarding sex. Because if kids aren't getting their information from their parents, they're getting it from kids their age who THINK they know what they're talking about. And these so called "experts" could be teaching your kids the absolute WRONG things to do. Teach Parents! and teach fast!

I also agree with this post and that parents should step up. I find it difficult to understand why parents struggle with talking to their children about sex. They are able to tell kids what to do in every other aspect of their lives, so why is this topic any different? Regardless of how uncomfortable these talks may be, I believe the benefits greatly outweigh the cost.
ReplyDeleteI also think that if TV programs would show more of the possible repercussions sex can bring, teens would be much less likely to follow what they see on TV.
