I had my first girlfriend when I was thirteen, and we started having sex at that age. Yep, folks, kids start getting horny when puberty hits ... and we found nothing naturally objectionable about acting on that.
My mom felt differently, I think. At least when she caught us in the act in my bedroom, she "forbid" us to have sex in the house after that. (So we usually had our trysts in my attic).
Nature cannot be stopped. If your kid has the hots for a girl or guy, the best you can do is educate them and support their decision. There's no way to "stop" them from behaviour that Mother Nature condones.
Oh, and though I started sleeping with guys when I was 16, I didn't have my first real boyfriend till I was 41! (see the above photo posted by Isaac (fka zapppop) of us in our hotel suite in Paris, about a year after we started dating.)
I'd sure like to find my first girlfriend again and learn what she's been up to. I was so in love with her.
Oh, and I still love isaac ... and just about everyone else I've ever had a serious romantic relationship with.
Love is grand. Sex is awesome. Don't try to stand in the way.
