Today, my daughter asked me what is the youngest age at which you should start having sex. Being a good mom, I said that she shouldn't have sex until after she's been married. My daughter then said, "Oh... shoot," and walked away. My daughter is twelve. FML
I agree, your life sucks 79 112
You deserved it 14 712

Same thing different taste

you should keep a better eye on what your twelve year is doing and who she's hanging around with

@164 - Losing your virginity is a consequence of having sex? Shit I wish I had have known that sooner!!!

lol experience. You're 13, you have zero life experience.

okay so now the correct "good mother" thing to do is be realistic. Most girls are going to want to have sex before they're married. Say something like "sixteen, and on birth control". I had the smae talk with my little sister the other day. I was trying to both do the right thing and make sure she knows its best to wait (there is no uy at the moment, thankfully, but i dont like risking it) but also be the cool big sister too, so as not to push her away. Because if she DID start having sex too young I would at least want to know, so that i could do something about it. I'd much rather have my 12 year old sister having sex while on birth control than have her pregnant, you know?

Sorry, but, you obviously fail as a good mother on more levels.

there's still the fact that she was thinking about it at an incredibly early age, no matter if she's had sex or not yet! she should still think boys are icky :}

keep a eye on her and get her some birth control.

"being a good mother" you should give her a more detailed answer, either tell her to wait until she is with someone she trusts and is on birth control, or if your personal beliefs dictate she wait until marriage, explain to her why. if you don't tell her the facts straight up she'll get her information from her friends or the internet, which could be dangerous. she could end up pregnant or with an STD, and she might not trust you enough to ask you to help her get birth control if you aren't frank with her.

Why jump to the conclusion that she's actually having sex? She may just be reacting to the fact that "Ohmygod I'll have to wait SO LONG before it's my turn." At 12, adulthood seems like an eternity away. Also, that kid needs some sex education, stat. THAT is what makes you a good mother.

if she is even thinking about sex or even knows about it at that age, you are a horrible mother. you should hope she thinks that sex is just a kiss.

So instead of having an open honest discussion about sex with your daughter you brush it off by telling her to wait until marriage? No wonder teens have such a warped perception of sex.
