Today, my parents bought purity rings for my twin brother and me for our birthday, and had them blessed by our priest. Neither of us are virgins. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend's mom bought us matching purity rings. FML
Today, I found the purity ring I lost a year ago. Too bad I lost my virginity 4 months ago. FML
Today, my dad gave me a promise ring on my one-year anniversary with my boyfriend and made me swear I would wait until marriage. Four hours later, he walked in on us having sex in my bedroom. FML
Today, I invited over my girlfriend of two years to spend my birthday night with her. Instead of a conventional wrapped birthday present, she gave me the news that she has taken a vow of chastity. FML
Today, my dad gave my younger brother condoms and a pat on the back, even though he doesn't have a girlfriend. This is after called me a whore after he saw me kissing my long-term boyfriend last week. FML
Today, my husband and I returned from a much needed weekend away. I found out that during that time, his weird ass parents tried to force our daughter to do one of those creepy virginity pledges, complete with a “purity” ring ceremony. She’s literally 9 years-old. FML
Today, my girlfriend lost her virginity. I still have mine, though. FML
Today, my fiance told me that his father would need to check my hymen is intact to ensure I'm pure before we get married. This is a new one. FML
Today, I tried to make things less awkward by complimenting my Tai Chi partner's ring and he says, "Thanks, it's a purity ring!" I said, "I used to have one of those. Would you believe me if I said I lost it in a river?" Now my entire Tai Chi class thinks I lost my virginity in a river. FML
Today, my mother burst into tears and hysterics when she found out my fiancée and I were not "pure" for our upcoming wedding. I'm 28, she's 27, and we've lived together for four years. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Whoa, whoa, whoa...that is just a little personal. I mean, yes, parents should talk to their children about sex and educate them, but getting involved in any way about deciding when and with whom sex should take place is just going too far. Parents need to stay out of their kids' bedrooms!

The "purity movement" is voluntary. The child is supposed to make the decision to wait on his/her own. I don't think good parenting involves deciding exactly who your kid has sex with. However, if a child is under the legal age of consent, then parents should be involved with their children enough to know what's going on. Most young teenagers are idiots and don't realise it yet. They certainly shouldn'y be let alone to make choices that may affect the rest of their lives.

What if op got pregnant (or someone else pregnant). Are parents just meant to let their kids **** who the want and still come back for financial assistance like we know that they would. If they parents take a lazy stance in monitoring their children then it is only fair for them to take a lazy stance in taking care of the issue (and vice versa). Here come the thumbs down

I think as a parent you are meant to teach your children good morals and to have a higher self worth and you teach them the dangers of sex and what to do. That's all a parent can really do. If you child wants to have sex at 13 they will probably do it. But you hope you taught your kid better than that.

Well, you don't have to tell them you've had sex. You could just discreetly leave used condoms in your bedroom. Tell them you ran out of socks. (Aside: I am against the 'purity' movement. Sex is not dirty, evil or impure, it's a natural (and very fun!) human function.)

Purity rings just lead to anal.

Bluntly tell them that and walk out of the house while leaving the ring on the table.

Well they prolly know you 2 aren't virgins anymore, but like all good catholic parents (mine included) they just want to guilt you into not enjoying sex.
