i had a question. besides the risk of stds and pregnancy why are adults so against teen sex? like parents make a huge deal out of it and i dont see why if you use male/ female condoms and are on birth control. i mean there is always still of risk of those things but they arent the end of the world.

Want to answer more questions in the Sexual Health and Reproduction category?
Maybe give some free advice about: General Sex Questions?
and, would you wanna date someone with an STD? becasue if you had sex, you would get it. Marrage would also be hard. and you could not have a baby naturally. it would have to be a c-section
actally, there are not cures for a lot of STDs. they can make you incapable of becoming pregnate, cause internal damage. and death.
most stds are 40%smaller than the size of the poors in a condom. many times condoms are not used correctly. also, nerve endings in the female range from the belly button to thighs, and that is where herpes lives and that area is not covered by a condom. also, your brain is not fully developed until you are 25. your bodies are not made to handel sex and such a young age, no matter what you may say or think.

Because teenagers shouldn't have sex. You aren't mature enough to handle it. And do you realize what you just said? "BESIDES the risk of STDs and pregnancy..." I don't think you need any other reasons.

Actually if you were 12 and had a baby it could very well be the end of the world.
Unfortunately they think its OK to have sex too.
There are STDs that can kill you. AIDS for example.
And then again a lot of parents (myself included), have had their kids and don't want to raise their grand kids. Would kind of take the fun out of having them. :)

well thier probley maing sure that you don't get pregnant and so you can be care ful with std's and not get pregnant cause you probley dont wanna spend the rest of your life taking care if a baby

in the past they may have experianced an abortion or something from having sex but unknowingly becoming pregnant so the parents may just want to be safe

Well, besides all the risks even WITH one or more simultaneous methods of birth control, I think it's just because they still see you as a child, and you're not ready for such an adult thing. Of course, the only person that can decide that is you, but in a lot of ways they are right. There are great emotional risks to having sex as well. If you are a girl, you might have sex one time and get a reputation for being a slut! Or the person you have sex with might just be using you, and that is not a good feeling. Not a good feeling at all. With all the things that have changed over the years, that is still the same as thousands of years ago. Anyway, that's why parents don't like it and they have every right to feel that way!

I think it's that parents are a tiny bit afraid of their children. Sex is something that shows adulthood to people. It is something that adults engange in, and is showing maturity and power over one's self. They believe that sex will first make their child wilder and more disobedient. For if a child defies them with sex, there is nothing less in the lines of disobedience. So, why wouldn't the do something less then? Also, they don't like letting their kids go. They want them to remain young forever.
Just my views on it. Feel free to drop one in the inbox if you want.

Parents tend to have a hard time accepting that their children are growing up. They might fear that their children are going to turn into nymphos or prostitutes or "do things that they're not mentally ready for." the Truth is, we're never going to be old enough for our parents.
At the same time, they probably fear the fact that you might venture into other domains (i.e., drugs, heavy metal, you get the cliché.)

parents have a hard time letting go. it's like their child is losing their innocence and they think that their kids should be older to do that kind of stuff. i think they're wrong cuz they might've had sex when they were teens too. most parents are just over protective ((and i think it's ridiculous))
]
well theres always a chance of pregnancy. parents are just looking out for their kids best interest. sex is a big deal to parents. someday when your a parent of a teenager, youll understand!

Parents are afraid of their children growing up. Having sex is a sign of them getting older and getting more independant. They cant seem to grasp the concept that you're an ADULT and you're doing ADULT things. It's hard for them to come to terms with the fact you may be having sex because then they will have to come to terms with you eventually leaving home, getting married, and whatever else. It's just a big shocker for them and I guess we as kids just cant understand what they are going through until we have kids of our own.

i know what you mean my mum i go to her what would you do if you found out i was having sex at 16 like the legal age and she was like i would go crazy and i was like why :S she just said cause and i was like but your allowed then and she go just because its legal dont mean you do it though, and she goes i know for a fact u aint ready but how she know if i am or not. it's your choice and only yourself knows if your ready right? but i thought about it and i dont think like parents trust teens that they're going to use a condom right like you know they always say teens do it rough well maybe they think it going to split your going to get something and i also think maybe they want us to be like keeping it special and once we done it once, they dont want us going round not caring about it no more

Well, depending on the parent, it could be because it's against their religion.
And becoming pregnant is a HUGE deal. As a teen parent, your life pretty much ends. You can't hang out with friends, you have to take care of your kid. You can't get a decent job, because when they find out you have a kid they won't hire you. They'll want to hire someone that is going to BE there. When you have a kid, say your kid gets sick. You aren't going to stay at work. You're gonna leave to take care of your kid. What if you can't find a babysitter for your kid? You can't get a job, you can't leave the house without your child.
And going to what you said " i mean there is always still of risk of those things but they arent the end of the world."
To the parents, it could be the end of the world. How would you like it if you ended up with HIV AIDS, Crabs, Herpes, etc? How would you like it if you became pregnant (unless you're a guy) or how would you like it if your girlfriend became pregnant? It seems like it's all fun and games when you're having sex, but when you take the risks into consideration and it's a HUGE deal.

Many believe that teenagers are not ready for sex and the effects of sex emotionally, and physically which most aren't. And alot of teenagers aren't because they are not educated about it as much as they should be. Pregnancy and STDs are not your usual have to deal with everyday type of problems. If more people were educated about sex then we wouldn't be having so many problems with them.
