It's been a long time since I've had the opportunity to voice my opinion on this.
I think it's 100% wrong, period.
I lost my virginity a little more than a month ago to someone I love. I'm 17, and I regret the decision. Not to the point where it eats me alive, but if I could go back and time and have saved myself, I would.
I mean, let's pretend we're all still cave people. Sure, have sex all you want. It's not like you need anything other than your natural instincts to take care of a child. But in today's world, you have to have a job, and therefore, and education. And there are so many more influences in the world now that you need to protect a child from, and educate them on, that you need to have a great deal of life experience and wisdom in order to even begin to steer them in the right direction.
Now I know what you're thinking; who said anything about having kids?
Well, even if you use protection, there's always a chance of pregnancy. Now here's why I think it's wrong to take that chance. This is just my person opinion.
Since sex was naturally something that didn't involve condoms, or patches, or pills or anything, sex naturally leads to having children. Since it's probably the most intense act that can occur between two human beings, I think it's disrespectful to the act to have sex before you're ready to take care of children. What's even worse, is when someone gets an abortion, ending a potential life, just because they weren't ready. Because they couldn't keep their legs shut until they were responsible enough to handle the real consequences of having sex.
No, teenagers should not be having sex. Until you can stand on your own two feet without any assistance whatsoever, are completely independent, and have enough wisdom and experience to support two lives, keep the ******** legs shut.
