Hi this is OP. First off, my daughter is not pregnant. She has been going to school sex ed classes since she was 11, apparently they don't explain how someone gets pregnant in enough detail. She told me she's a virgin, though she thought she wasn't because she was "having sex" with the showerhead. Apparently one of her friends had told her masturbation counts as sex.

That tells you what she's doing in the shower.

Wait, do you mean she is actually pregnant and the showerhead caused it, or using the showerhead will eventually get her pregnant?

Neither she thought she was pregnant from the shower

Thank you, Captain obvious *salutes*

I'm confused, is she actually pregnant? Or she thinks she is?

It says that she thinks it "got her pregnant." I think it's safe to assume from the wording that she is indeed.

44 - No, it isn't safe to assume that. The sentence can be interpretted two ways: She's pregnant and thinks the showerhead did it. She isn't pregnant but thinks she is from the showerhead.

if she really had had sex do you think she would be dumb enough to blame the shower for an actual pregnancy? im guessing she had irregular periods coupled with masturbation guilt and believes she is pregnant.

She could have gotten pregnant and the guy told her it was the showerhead. People believe some crazy things.

i highly doubt it. someone who has actually had sex is not going to make up that kind of story. shes thirteen not stupid.

13 and stupid leads to 16 and pregnant.

a) YDI for not having educated your teenage daughter about reproduction. honestly. b) if she actually was pregnant surely she would attribute it to sex and not an inanimate object?! unless you're a complete idiot, in which case YDI again.

Maybe it's the kid that's the idiot and not OP. Honestly, no matter how much you teach, some kids don't want to learn.

On the contrary, I think it makes perfect sense to teach children about their physiology before they hit puberty. At the very least I think we can agree that you should warn your daughter about periods so it doesn't freak her the **** out when she starts bleeding from her hoo-ha one day, and from menstruation it's not exactly a giant leap to reproduction... Besides, we're not talking about toddlers here. A pre-pubsecent girl is absolutely mentally and emotionally capable of understanding how puberty works.

Just explain to her that she can't get pregnant from head.

while I agree with you, judging from the text "thinks the shower head got her pregnant" usually implies that she may already be pregnant..

i could mean that she is pregnant but it could also mean she us not pregnant but is irregular with her cycle.

keep an eye on her xD. or she'll do nasty stuff with the shower head,.

I think it's a little late for that!

Um. You're kidding right? I think maybe you should have given her "the talk" when she got her period or even before.

She probably doesn't have her period yet. Most parents wait until then to give the talk.

Why would you wait until they come home totally freaked out over the blood and stuff to explain that actually, you you knew this was going to happen all along, you just thought it would be a nice surprise for them? That's just mean. Plus periods are one of the later stages of puberty. If they're having periods they've likely already gone through growth spurts, weight gain, hair growth, boobs, etc. that they already need explaining...and if you're explaining those you kind of need to explain what puberty is as a whole, periods included.

My mom gave me the talk--she actually had me grab the encyclopedia (yes, I'm that old)--long before I got my period. I also had age-appropriate books to read about where babies come from and puberty. So when I got my period, I knew exactly what it was. If OP is uncomfortable giving the talk, she can find age-appropriate books to give her daughter and offer to answer questions. I wouldn't be surprised if OP's daughter is in a school district with abstinence-only "education"

I don't know if I should find this A) disturbing or B) hilarious. I'll just go with A and B.

hilariously disturbing, or disturbingly hilarious?
