My little sister is only fifteen and three quarters years old, yet she is maturing quite quickly. She began dating a young man who is a little rapscallian, if you ask me. I don't trust that boy. Yesterday, I was in her room looking for some lotion I could borrow. I opened her nightstand drawer, and lo and behold, I find condoms! And not just one or two, oh no. There were many, and they were all, well how do I put it... rather promiscuous. There were some which said that they gave a "tingly" feeling, due to their mintyness. Another was said to be flavored, and there were even some which were "ribbed for your pleasure." I am twenty five years old--ten years her senior--yet I have gone no further than tongue kissing, and I was a year older than her at the time! I believe that my sister is sinning terribly. What to do, what to do?

Other than that, be thankful she is being safe with condoms.
You can give her advice, but you can't make her stop.
I have read questions on here written by 13 and 14 year olds asking for sex advice, so she is not alone in this behavior.
I'm 29, and I agree with you that it didn't seem that kids did such things when I was that age.
Sincerly_Lisa answered Tuesday April 3 2007, 11:45 pm: Dear Older Sister,
I think that you need to sit down with your sister and have a talk with her. You need to talk to her about the dangers of sex and protection all that good stuff. But you should be somewhat happy if she's using protection, but still, its not good that she has condomns. Talk to her, and sit her down, but be sure to bring it up in a way so it's not like "Why were you looking through my stuff!" Because being 15 is a very uhm, in lack of a better word, touchy age. I hope this helped, good luck and let me know how things turn out.
Sincerly,

mrpokie answered Tuesday April 3 2007, 11:41 pm: ok, about 90% of the time kids will have sex if they want to, no matter what you tell them. all you can do is try your hardest to make what she does do safe. sit her down and tell her that you are proud of her for using protection, and try to make sure she knows all about sex and its potential effects.
or, you could tell her boyfriend you will literally track him down and kill him if he does anything. but i personally go with the first option :) [ mrpokie's advice column | Ask mrpokie A Question ]
christina answered Tuesday April 3 2007, 11:39 pm: Talk to her about it. Just be like "I was looking for some lotion, and came across some condoms.." And let the conversation start that way. She might get the wrong idea [thinking you were going through her things] & get mad at you, but it's normal.
