Teenager Pregnency

Seen the National Day Rally speech by our PM Lee last night. He mentioned abt an increase of Teenager pregnency in our society which i totally agreed wif him. I had seen too many cases around me.

As a mum or dad, what age do u think u will allow ur daughters to have a bf next time? What preventive measures will u impose on ur daughters?

Re: Teenager Pregnency

My hb and I were discussing this too!! We are very worried not only for our daughter, our son too.. Both we done want them to go into such situation..

I believe daddies play a super important part in the growth and mindset of the children.. I remebered myself seeking for BGR as I lack my dad's love..

Not sure which age we are comfortable they have BGR relationship?? But sure will worry for them whichever age they are.. Even after they married, I will still worry just like all parents of us..

Very true, which is why sometimes, i can't understand why youngsters dun bother with protection. and the reasons such as "no shiok" seems almost absurd compared to the consequences.

When I jokingly ask one of my Dh's friends what will he do if one day the girl whom he had a fling with gets pregnant. He still can happily says ask her abort lah. Im so angry man. Seriously what do some guys take girls for and how inhuman they're to kill their own child all for the sake of fun.

Re: Teenager Pregnency

JMHO,

Teenage pregnancy only happens if the girl will allow/permit her BF to have unprotected sex with her. The decision is really from a girl. Because if she doesn't want & the boy will force her, it's considered rape.

That's why when the time comes for my girl to have a BF, I will give her sex education & teach her ways to protect herself. I know that most often what is not allowed triggers our curiosity. For me, I won't say don't do this or don't do that...will simply explain the negative & the positive side of it.
