pre-teens and teens having sex
So I went on a date last nite with a guy who is a health teacher for 7th & 8th grade middle school students in an affluent school district in Long Island, NY. He was telling me that the majority of them are having sex. And wild and crazy sex too. He said the most popular "boy" in the school's claim to fame now is he had sex with 2 girls at one time this past weekend. I knew this stuff went on but to hear all of these stories really kind of freaked me out. I think the world is changing a lot and not for the better. What do you all think about this kind of stuff? It is really scary to me especially because these are not your typical "inner city" or "poor" kids who Americans tend to stereotype as doing these behaviors. The guy told me that he has spoken to the kids about "holding off" until they find someone they truly care about and they can't conceive doing this; that in order to be "accepted" they basically have to have sex. I am so glad I work with adults. I give all of you who are parents so much credit.
