If I ground my daughter for having sex you think she hate me? Or should I let her be?

[Anonymous]

Is she under age, having sex? if YES, ground her, and take her phone, and tablet, or anything she doesn't need for school!!
She will hate you, maybe, for a week, or so, but what are you going to do if she gets pregnant?
Parents are too lax, and too absent now, and kids don't know better, and do stupid things that could hurt them, KILL them, or get them or someone pregnant!! None of which is good!!
When I was a kid, and did something stupid, that might get me seriously hurt, or killed, my dad beat me hard, so I would NEVER do that again!!
I'm not endorsing 'child abuse' but a spanking, is not abuse, with just your hand! Using a belt, or switch, that is ABUSE!!

the thing about teenagers is that you can’t actually stop them from doing dumb stuff. Unless your willing to lock them in a basement... even then, They would probably destroy the basement or something!! my goal with my kids is to just do my best explain to them what the right choice would be... and then, After that make damn sure they are on birth control, so that even if they make bad choices. they don’t jeopardize their future.

“I’ve always thought it dumb to only preach abstinence to teens! We should preach abstinence, and then help them take the proper precautions in case make they make bad choices”.

i know from personal experience as a teenager the more I was told sexuality was wrong the more I wanted to do it. The best approach is to assure they are well-educated on the importance of safe sex.

[DizzyDesii]

I’d do more than ground. I dont care if she “temporarily” gets mad. She should not be having sex in high school if we taught her better than that

[socksguy]

How old is your daughter?

[Asker]

15 .

[socksguy]

She’s not going to like it. But you’re her mom not her friend. Explain the risks and the reasons...

[Warmapplecrumble]

How old is she?

[SarahP080102]

Let her be. It would probably only prompt her to do it more

[Miristheiss]

Parents shouldn't worry about being friends.
Raise your kids with healthy boundaries.

[TeeSquare]

Grounding her just gets her to do it behind your back. Better off talking safety with her and encouraging her to be open and ask questions.

[chriscdi]

whats her age?

[Asker]

She 15 ?

[chriscdi]

you have every rights to punish her

[Massageman]

She needs to have a discussion and some grace more than a punishment.

[Danny_dan92]

How old is she?

[Asker]

She 15

[Danny_dan92]

Your call honestly, but as long as she is sexually active with one person, and the kid is around her age. And they are not having unprotected sex? Then you shouldn’t have anything to worry about

[hbg84]

The best thing you can do is sit her down and have the talk and make sure she's on some form of birth control and using condoms

[AmeerX]

Ground her. She should do as you say

[okeydoke]

It’s not going to stop her from having sex.

[Wise4myage]

How old is your daughter? Perhaps a discussion about sex would be a better idea.

[Gedaria]

How did you feel at the same age when you were grounded for doing it...

[Asker]

I wasn't. I was never caught.

[Gedaria]

But what would you have felt if they had. It's fine grounding but it doesn't do anything they just get sneekier

[b5fan]

I wouldn't ground her that wouldn't be effective. I would force her to take parenting classes and try to get her some experience with how hard taking care of a newborn baby alone would be. (This is one of the likely outcomes of this behavior.) I would also talk about values and life plans.

[Posterboy56]

Why do you keep asking these dumb questions. And why are you somehow unaware of what a "verb" is. Is English not your first language or something? "She 15" is not English.

[COMMODOREII]

What a way to alienate your daughter.

[pizzalovershouse]

Depends if she is 18 or not if so then no but other wise grounding her is a good thing for you but it won't stop her you need to have a talk with ger an see if she is having safe sex cuz you wanf to make shure she is safe

[Fromdusktilldawn]

Why should you ground her? Sex is nothing evil that needs punishment

[Bang5luts]

You should definitely talk to her and explain your concerns, then if she is dismissive or disrespectful to you ground her

[GreenGold1992]

how old is she?

[Asker]

She 15

[GreenGold1992]

may be a losing battle either way

[Asker]

Why u say that?

[GreenGold1992]

if you ground her, she may do it more to spite you. if you let her be, she'll be doing it all she wants anyway.

[ttnnkkrr]

pointless excercise. instead try talking candidly about thegood and bad. and be honest about your own like and dislikes.

[TheRealJokerSA]

If you don't ground her the you gave her permission to have sex.

[In_Trance]

I don't know why you'd do that; it's not gonna stop her from doing it again

[Valnac]

Think how you felt at her age.
If you know she’s having sex, counsel her, be her friend.
Make sure she’s being smart!

[REDHOTLINE]

If shr wants sex no she won't hate you if she dint want yes she will

[9Livezzz]

Grounding her might make her do it more

[tHISpLACEiSbONKERZ]

As if you didn't have sex a lot sooner than you should...

[tHISpLACEiSbONKERZ]

She has your genes so stop expecting her to be any better than you were.

[Jakeofalltrades93]

she would probably do it more just to spite you, you should instead make sure she is being safe about it

[Nachowedgie]

Doesn't matter what she thinks. Ground her

[KingChris08]

If you’re 30-35 and your daughter is 15 how old were you when you were pregnant with her? 15+?

[Asker]

15 .

[jogor20]

Depends of her age... I mean is the girl is 30...

[LOGESHKUMAR]

If your daughter like to have sex you could ground her for sex.. If she is not interested leave her let her be..

[gandolph3]

well that won't stop her, just love her and teach her to be careful. birth control pills might be a good idea

[Surfstyle1]

You should sit and take with her she is going to anyways. Grounding pushes a wedge between the situation.

[Fakehunter]

relationships with good people

[Anonymous]

She can't be very old if you're 35.
I would ground her.

[Anonymous]

Yeah she'd hate you but its not going to stop her having sex. Tricky situation. All I can say is make sure shd is used contraception and protection because you don't want her geyyong pregnant or having an STD.
If you can find a way to convince her that she is too young and there is time enough for sex when she's older.

[Anonymous]

She probably will

[Asker]

Okay thanks

[Opinion Owner]

Maybe though, depends on her age and how it happened. I went through something like that too

[Anonymous]

Ground her you're her mother not her friend.

[Asker]

It's hard to be the bad one

[Opinion Owner]

Well are you ready to be a grandma?
