Noones suggesting it's ok for kids to be 'screwing around'
You keep going on about the risks of the pill. Have you any idea what childbirth does to a young girls body. They aren't properly formed and not ready for the trauma this causes.
Not to mention the emotional effect of becoming a mother while still a child must have.
I have 2 young girls and I hope they will come to me when they start to think about sex. But I would definitly recommend the pill to them as well as condoms.

You can't stop nature. No matter how abhorrent the thought of our children starting early sex lives may be, the fact is, they do. Children need loving parents to teach them the "rights and wrongs", and to be educated in sexual matters at school as well. Although I have boys instead of girls, they both know what's what. We make sure they have friends of both sexes, but they all keep themselves occupied with sports and other hobbies. Accidents will happen of course, but I don't think many of these youngsters are going to be the sort to see sex as a past-time, until they're older. I'm sure that the mothers of these girls've already talked in the same way to them as we have to our boys, and because the kids are level-headed, even if they DO have early sex, I think they'll make sure they're protected first. Better to be safe than sorry.
Early. I think ours were about 7 when they had their first tentative lesson at school, but we parents were invited to sit in on it if we wanted to. I went along, and it was all done in a very sensitive and interesting way, so that the children weren't frightened by what they were hearing. It was all very basic at first, and then they have a more in-depth one later on. In fact, our youngest's about to have another one soon. He's 10.
Of course I'll speak to them first. But rather than forbid them and lay down the law I plan to actually explain it. Tell them what it's about and what the risks and repercussions can be. I will explain that you can never get that first time back so think about who it's with.
Then I will tell them that it's ultimately their decision and I just want them to be safe and sensible.
Hopefully they will then talk to me about it rather than sneak around behind my back!!
