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

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!!!

Trust me. But yea... Don't leave all the teaching to the teachers... Kids just want to know. At least protect them if their not going to protect themselves... :/ We don't live in the same world we used to. And I don't even know what that world really looked like... :(

Simple as this: Doesn't matter what age you had a kid, what they teach you in school, or whatever. A 12 year old child should not be asking about having sex. If she's asking it means that's she's interested or already has. At 12 she shouldn't even want to consider thinking about having sex. Call me old-fashioned or whatever you want, but my 14 year old sister doesn't even ask about having sex. Is society that lenient where people are saying "Oh she's just curious?" Ridiculous. She shouldn't be curious in the first place.

Either she was disappointed that she would have to wait so long (which Probably won't happen), or she has no idea what it is.

#352, just because someone isn't asking about sex, it doesn't mean they aren't curious or thinking about it. Perhaps there isn't a good enough relationship there for the girl to feel comfortable in asking questions. I was thinking about sex at 12, but chose to lose my virginity at 16 instead. My mom's sex talk with me was, "Do you have any questions? No, ok, well ask me if you do." I didn't feel that I could ask her anything about what I was feeling emotionally, nor what was happening physically. 12 is definitely not too young nowadays, when girls are having their periods at 8 years old. It's very, very different than it was.

#356 yeah 16 is also too young and kinda hypocritical. You can't criticize a girl for having sex at 12 when only 4 years later you do it. That's just my opinion I guess... 18 is the legal adult age so after that (at least for now) I think that's the O.K age. Of course everyone has their own opinion as that 12 year old thought she was old enough to do it. Oh well. - Cheeter.

Wow, so for all of those young girls out there who might have had sex and possibly regret it you are going to tell them that they've done something "nasty" and "disgusting?" Real responsible...NEVER use fear tactics to try and protect children; it only backfires. Girls need to be learn that their sexuality is nothing to be ashamed of, and if they have had sex that's nothing to be ashamed of either. You can teach the emotional/mental and physical risks of sex and encourage girls to wait until they are more mature without making them feel like they should be ashamed for desiring sex. You can tell them sex is hard to deal with at a young age but please don't make girls feel ashamed of their desire.

You should have already been telling her about the birds and the bees by now, age appropriately. She will be having her period soon, if she hasn't already, and by then, she should know about birth control, and how easy it is to get pregnant. You can talk with her about the moral/religious choice to not have sex until marriage, but she needs to know the mechanics about birth at least, so that she would make smart choices about birth control if she chooses to have sex before marriage. Wishing that your child remain chaste isn't a real-world way to deal with it. There are pregnant 8 years olds out there right now - by choice. It's not like it was when we were kids, and you need to arm your daughter with knowledge so that she doesn't end up pregnant.

im 13 and i lost my virginity when i was 12 its normal now.

Your a pretty good parent but tell her she can do it whenever she wants. dont restrict her emotional groth

I learned all about sex from ages 3 through 11

Wow-- but I can't say I'm surprised. I know of a 11 or 12 year old that was caught having sex with someone 2 years older than him IN THE BATHROOM OF THE MIDDLE SCHOOL! D: Ugh.
