Would you be okay with your teenager having sex in your home?

[Anonymous]

Would it make a difference if it were a guy or girl?

[SnowedIn]

Absolutely yes I'd be okay with it. And, no, it doesn't matter if it's one of my sons or my daughter. They'd have to be mature enough to communicate about it and to know what and how to have safe sex. I'm not putting an age on that -- it's different for each child. Here's the thing: our kids are going to have sex once they've decided to have sex. You can't stop them so I'd rather be in my house where it's safe and clean than in an alley or a car or somewhere else. I want them to see that sex isn't something to be ashamed of and is a normal part of a healthy adult life.

Yes I would have a problem with this having sex is reserved for adults that are taking care of themselves that are living on the road and they're mentally physically and financially in a place in their life where they can take care of themselves and potentially children no teenager will be of mine would be having sex in my home.

[musicbrain5]

Yes, and hopefully with someone they are in a steady relationship with, who I have already met. I would want them to be at least 16 and have an understanding of all the risks that go along with having sex.

If they are having sex in my house, then I know that they are in a safe place and being safe with each other.

Long as it's between two teens, i don't care. The moment an adult shows up, they'll never leave again.

[lightbulb27]

no, neither.

that's why teenagers need beaten with sticks periodically...

[LazerBean]

If they're married.

[Apple1996]

Yeah teenagers are gonna do it anyways so not worth trying to stop them

[Dargil]

I won't be.

[socair]

I think that all other things being right so to speak. Then my son or daughter choosing to have sex in the place where they feel most safe is a mature and sensible decision

Whether I'd be ok with it, will unfortunately never be tested

[Mansearching]

Have to realize that, teens are going to have sex there or the others house or car/truck or friends house... etc. So it really wouldn't matter. But I or their mother would talk to them (our child) about birth control.

[clampfan101]

No way! I’m going to raise a Christian family with the kids having the decency to wait until they’re married and living in their own home.

[BJP21]

As long as its consensual and done safely.

[chilldude33]

having sex while somebody else is at home is weird af in my opinion

[bananathunder]

it's going to happen anyway. Leave lots of condoms around for them if you know it's going on

[CubaPirate]

Regular partner yeah I rather them have safe sex in a comfy environment than risky sex in the park etc. Because they're going do it regardless

[Anonymous]

Yes because it’s going to happen anyway. When I was in high school, we’d go to my boyfriends house after school and we had a half hour before his parents got home from work. We frequently had sex there and it was often completely unprotected. They had no idea. So I’d rather have it out in the open without judgement so I can have some influence. Make sure my son has condoms or my daughter has reliable birth control. Forbidding something just means they’ll hide it from you and you can’t monitor them 24/7.
