Pregnant teens!

Well, my daughter has been getting yet MORE homework from the infamous PSHCE about sex, wearing a condom and relationships etc. (2 times a week.) Has it done any good? That boy has (maybe, they don't know yet) fathered a child at the age of 13. (he has the intercourse when he was 12) When kids get this homework about sex education etc. I personally think that it is WASTED. Can't they see that all it takes it some simple parent-child talking to each other? Gosh. Sometimes I fell like I could run the government...

I have to say that parent-child talking doesn't always work. I've always been frank and open with my 3 but I failed miserably with my daughter.
When we sat down for "the chat" I explained everything, including the changes in her body being an indication her periods would be due to start.
The next day she said "I think I'm about to start my periods because I've found hair on my body like you said."
When I asked her where the hair was, she replied
"On my toes."

I have a lot of sympathy for ypour thinking Shoe.
50 yrs ago,sex was never talked about and you picked it up as ypou went along and you were so scared of your patents that intercourse was never contemplated. Staying with the "boy friend" and especially going on holoday with him was never, ever entertained. Yes some did fall through the net, but UK has the higheast rate of teenage preganacies in Europe and it has trebled in the last 20yrs. Surely we must have been doing something right 50yrs ago...can't be any worse than now.

lol, sorry Zacsmaster...
You see, my daughter has been getting homework 2 times a week about PSHCE which, from what I can gather, is teaching about sex, relationships etc. However, if the 12 year old boy who's supposedly fathered that kid had been taught PSHCE then would that have stopped the pregnancy?
In my own opinion, doesn't it just need some talking to from the parents? It would be loads simpler...

Mrs_0....LOL went on a weekend camp with the Youth Club, pitched tents and first love and I disappeared into the fields and spent 1hour in the cab of a dis-used van. She was 17yrs old and I was 16ys old, but in those days there was a code of sexual ethics which had to be followed., kissing .......no forget it.
