Bec, as usual , you made a lot of sense to me! Bravo

ella's mum, thank you so very much sweetie, that means a lot to me! I'm not perfect as a mother but am doing the best I know how!

This is just irritating, I can't believe I have to deconstruct my post and explain myself again.

Didn't I just say it is not enough to put a teen on the pill? Didn't I say teens are NOT rampant tarts, where did I say a teen on the pill is a rampant tart?
What implication? I wasn't talking about discussion, I was talking about the hundreds of mothers that think they are cool actually putting their daughter on the pill so they don't get pg, and nothing further.

Bec, please take it from me, in 10 yrs time when you are talking to Esme, phrases like "let's talk about exploring how those feeling can be" are a sure-fire way to have her run screaming from the room.

Protecting yourself from being pg is ONE thing. What about the hurt and pain of rejection, rushing into having sex to keep the boy from shagging your best friend, finding out you have an STD and the whole school knows too? etc etc etc. No one is bothering to address THOSE issues in here and words, rumours and innuedo can be far more damaging to a young teen.
