I Agree. Kids now-a-days are much less influenced by thier parents. The influences on kids these days lie more with things such as well High School being the biggest. I never knew what kissing, dating, and sex were about untill High School, and i learned it all long before Health class. Go into a club and look at how people dress and dance, do you think the parents taught them that. You would say, well the parents dont stop it, but ask any teenager how much his/her parent really knows, and you will find out very little. Im sure my mother never knew i was having sex in the girls bathroom at 16, and im quite sure she never will. A parent can only do so much because in the end, a child/teenager is still a human being, posessing the ability to make their own choices. I know my mother taught me very well, however i still made some stupid choices. I still did things my mother did not approve of, and she never found out. But as i was saying, high school is a big influence, so is Television, I cant think of one primetime sitcom that doesnt have some sexual references, hell watch Fear Factor even and u will get some sexual inuendos. My buddys 5 year old nephew taps me on the shoulder while playing Grand Theft Auto 3 to say to me "they are doing it" and point to the rocking car simulating sex. With influences like these, how can we prevent KIDS (12,13, 14 year olds) from having sex?
