hahahahahah this is sooooo funny, but i gotta admit you are not a great parent letting your 13 year old kid have sex.. now go look for the one because he has to pay.

13! what has the world come to :(

PEOPLE, GOODNESS. She's not a bad parent! My sisters and brothers and I had wonderful parents. But as a teenager myself, I can tell you right now that no matter what our parents tell us, and no matter the fact that we know right from wrong, we're going to do what we want to do. My older sister was pregnant at 15. And it wasn't bad parenting; it was a night of partying - that she knew she shouldn't have been doing, but did anyway - a night of sex with her boyfriend - that she knew she shouldn't have been doing, but did anyway - and then a pregnancy, which she decided to keep, despite her boyfriend's rejection to it. And when she was pregnant, and had the baby? It was our parents and our family that was there for her every step of the way. So I think you all need to get off your high freakin' pedistals, and off your high horses, and realize that you can't control your kids anymore then you can control the weather. All you can have is the best of intentions and pray that you got through to them somehow. OP, I think you're a wonderful parent. It's good that she's telling you this. I think maybe you should go talk to her. Maybe it was a joke, and she was trying to be funny. Or maybe she was being serious and needs someone to talk to about it at this point. Either way, I think you should go and speak with her. (:

Wow... no offense AT ALL! but... you're daughter is a dumbass. *shrug* just saying really. i hope she at least got protection.... man....

There are many things to be said here. This doesn't make her a good or bad parent, it just points out a lack of informative parenting in that particular area, something that can happen very easily depending on how the parent was brought up. Next, kids will always look up to older popular role models and with the growing availability of promiscuous role models it becomes easier to accept sex younger (not saying in any that sex or promiscuity are bad, to each their own, but a 13 year old seems way too young to be taking examples from Gossip Girl). With the approval of friends (as close as family usually) sex at that age could seem perfectly normal to a kid. All the biological factors kick in big time between 9 and 13 as well. Start talking to kids about sex AS IF THEY WERE ADULTS before they hit the double digits so they can skip a ton of easily avoidable consequences or they WILL go out and figure it out on their own. Religious families are no exception, whatever your beliefs, simply telling a person not to do something or not talk about something "because it's wrong" doesn't work. Arm your kids with all the information possible, it's the best way to help them make good decisions in this area. Ignorance only begets more ignorance, especially when it comes to sex. If you're not informed enough to properly teach your kid about sex, get educated, you're the adult remember? Turn off the parental filter and hit the internet for some information. It may be uncomfortable for you, especially talking to your kid about it, but you'll be grateful when your kid doesn't astonish you by knowing what a Filthy Sanchez or a rim job are when you go to talk about the birds and bees the first time you find out they have a boy/girlfriend.

#200, you honestly have wonderfully supportive parents. the fact that they were there for your sister when she had a baby at 15 is amazing to me. that's really cool

ouch! they're having sex, younger and younger. it's very disturbing!

...13? Wow. Kids nowadays...

Disgusting.
