Who dares to critisize
a young woman for her fears ?
whos fine enough to share a picture
Of her with her ankles to her ears ?
Of course they can smell your lovemaking
Halfway down the hall
they love you and so you have a life
they're glad for you... thats all
The tv's on as a way of saying
We wouldn't dare intrudelar
They'll never ever say a word
For fear of being rude

I'm always glad to hear that some parents give thier "kids" space and time to make love at home...it's one of the most respectful things a parent can do. lar

ERRATA: Of herself with her ankles to her ears
We wouldn't dare intrude

as long as these "kids" have an agreement with their parents that it's okay or it's one of the most disrespectful things a child can do to their parents... -minuet

I beg to differ-my daughters would never disrespect us or our house by having intimacy at home whether they were 16, 18, or 25 and single.They are not single anymore but they knew we didn't condone sex outside of marriage.Call me an old fart or whatever you want -that is the way we are! Now if the parties are married, that's different. Look at the unhappiness of "too young to trot" children-unwanted babies,STDs, and now Aids. It can mess up kid's heads.J.

I agree with you minuet-It is disrespectful.When you condone this behavior in a kid you are letting them play with fire. Kids don't have the emotional experience to deal with complications.J

And sex is the most intimate, most emotionally attaching act with another human being .... so why give these children a loaded gun that they can't even aim yet to get near the bull's eye? Morphia

Oh you ppor pathetic calvinist life denying fools !. !. they are neurologicaly wired to make love.. and they will. 2. Give them a safe place, and enough self respect and they will handle it just as well as young people everhave anywhere. #. Educate your 'children" about safe sex, about contraception, and about ove too. they can and willmake decent choices if you have raised them to be decent people. One of the decent coices in life is to make love with people you hold dear.
Love goes away, just like people die...that doen't made the time we spent loving or living indecent just because it eventually ends.
I will say it again.. one of the more profound acts of trust and respect you can make toward your adolescent young adults is to trust them to manage thier own sexuality... and not shy away from talking with them early on... and when ever it seems appropriate..that so many of our 15 or 16 year olds are not virgens is not a problem ( most aren't)... that so many of them get pregnant or std's out of ignorance is a crime! and incidently your attitudes let's them turn thier sexual activity into an act of defiance.. which is obscenity itself. larry

Dear Morphia and J.. the only way i know about to get the experience to deal with love( and loss) is to love.. and loving sure beats the available alternatives.. hate, crime, ennui, suicide, depression... hard to remember, maybe, but these young people feel things SO intensely it is almost incomprehensible to us... also i suspect you never made love at 15 or 17 as i did,, and simply don't know what you missed ! Honies.. it's never that good again.sorry. why cheat them of the best years of their lives ? Oh one more thing, they have exactly what it takes to deal with the complications.. youth and vigor, and many years ahead of them.. all things that narrow our road and vision, because we don;t have them anymore.

Larry -of course you as a male can walk away from complications.You can change the rules but the emotions of sex remain the same and sex means something different to females than males.It's a deeper attachment and no kids aren't ready to handle it.J

Hey- we were all wired for sex at that age-hormones raging-hot to trot but being a step above animals, we weren't ruled by our genitals.J
