How old should kids start having sex?

I have a 14 year old that really wants to have sex with her boyfriend who is 15, but I think 14 is a little young. Should I let her have sex, or should I make her wait until she's 16?How old should kids start having sex?7How old should kids start having sex?
This can be a very trickey question to answer especially without knowing other aspects. Is your daughter and her boyfriend commited to one another? Could she handle the consequence? Does she know she can rely on you for support if something goes wrong?Does she know what to expect when having sex for the first time? Sure she may have read about it and learnt about it at skool in sex ed but its nothing like the first time. I personally think 14 is a little too young for your daughter to be capable of handling the after math of her first time both psychological and physical however I dont believe you can put an age limit on the stage in which she will be ready, This is a decision she must make herself, all you can do is give her the information and advice she needs to ensure she practices safe sex. Goodluck and hopefully she makes the right decision.How old should kids start having sex?you should have a long talk and tell her all the bad things around sex



ask her why she wants to have sex?



tell her that NO protection is a 100% and even the best as been know to fail ( protection is better than nothing) but having no sex is better that protection



sit and talk with her bf, her, and his parents ask the teens:



1. Why do you want to take it to the next level now?

2. How long do the two of you plan to stay together?

3. Are you prepared for the emotions you might feel afterward?

4. Have you talked about condoms?

5. Are you prepared with two forms of birth control?

6. Have you talked about what happens if you get pregnant?

7. Do you understand sexually transmitted diseases?

8. Are both of you absolutely sure that neither one of you has been with anyone else sexually in any way?



Show them HD color pictures of STDs and tell them that every time they have sex they are taking a risk no matter if it with or with out protection



tell them the odd of them being together forever are very low and it may be possible but the odd are against them.



encourage them to wait until 18 when their done with basic education and adult and can get and do anything they want.
first off, you can't MAKE her wait... i personally was 14 when i started having sex, my boyfriend was 16... and now i'm 19 he's 21 and we are engaged to be married the fourth of july next year.... it doesn't really matter about age it matters about maturaty... i was more mature for my age, so it wasn't really a problem... if you don't want her to have sex talk to her about it... she's obviously talking to you about it... but in the end, if she's gonna do it she's gonna do it and there isn't really anything you can do about it... make sure she is informed so she can make safe choices...How old should kids start having sex?im 13 and i dont really think people should have sex until they're more like 18, 19, etc. and i also think they should be very very in love to the point where they trust eachother completely, and are okay being 100% themselves. stuff like that. i dont think you have to be married to have sex, but you should love eachother like you are. and i really dont think a 14 year old girl could feel like that. i think it's a bad idea to have sex at 16 too, but its a lot better than 14. my suggestion, make her wait. i also think it's a bit sad that i know that and the girl's mother doesn't. there's also something very wrong with the title of your question. i would think that most mom's are absolutely not okay with "kids" having sex. im sorry, but i also think the fact that you're asking yahoo if YOU should let YOUR little girl have sex is a bit much, and nothing good should come of this situation.

another point, you also have to look at the fact that she's a teenage girl who probably, if thinking about having sex, doesn't care too much about what you say. depending on what kind of KID she is, she could just end up doing it anyway, which i think will happen, and she will probably be very mad if you tell her no, causing her to want sex more.

sorry but i think you're stuck here.How old should kids start having sex?
I think its not about age, really, but maturity, does she know the consequences? Both physically, emotionally, and psychologically? Doe she know how to use proper protection? Does her boyfriend know? What are her reasons for doing it?



Personally, I think age's 14,16,17, are way to young. The teenage years are often where we make bad decisions, because our brain has matured enough to make the same decisions as adults, but the part of our brain that predicts consequences has not matured yet. Seriously, she is way too young.



Cheers and good luck!
i waited until I was 16, its not really the age, its when u fall in luv, not puppy luv, but real love, and thats when u share it with that special sum1, because if u dont wait, ull have it with a boy who just wants sum, and it won't be special at all, he'll just leave u most likely and go to sum1 else...i mean me and my ex aint together anymore but we are still friends, and i dont regret it one bit.How old should kids start having sex?
Your question has one major attention getter which is a shocker in itself. The word "kids". She is a kid, still a child. Please think this through with some intelligence %26amp; logic. Think of your daughter's life in the long term. She is 14. Boyfriend #1. First sexual partner. At 14, how long do you think they will be together? Please have her wait until she is an adult who can make an adult decision. When you look back on it (and on her wedding day) neither of you will ever forget that decision!
this has to be a joke right?? wait til shes 18!! and legal!

16 is not the new 18 okay people, just because more teens are having sex earlier does not make it right, there is also more stupid people in the world nowadays so maybe we should ALL be stupid!



i mean what is the point of having sex that young anyways? to do it just becasue others are doing it? to have an orgasm and feel good? becuase you know they arent in love, they arent going to get married and start a family anytime soon and just like you said they are KIDS!! and KIDS!! should NOT have sex



if your daughter wants an orgasm so bad teach her about masterbation idk just dont let her have sex
Are you actually kidding me? Sex is meant for man and wife. Not 14 year old girls! I can prove it. Is your daughter ready to be a parent? Sex = baby



Sex is so much more than you are thinking

We can break it into three parts

Physical

Emotional

Spiritual

If you think sex is just physical you are sooo wrong



Your little girl is definitely not ready for the emotional rollercoaster ride that is sex. How long do you think her relationship with this boy will last? Do you think after she gives her self to this boy she'll be able to shrug it off when it ends?

Don't forget about the spiritual. Sex is to bring man and wife together as one person. knitting together spirits.

Sex is for marriage!
A "kid" should never have sex. A mature adult or young adult (which i think is at least 18) maybe.

They need to be in a good relationship.

First off be thankful that you have a teen who is telling you these things and is open with you. Most parents dont.

But tell her its not a good idea at this age.

She could get pregnant or get an std.

Some teenagers dont care what you say and are going to do it even if you say no so put her on birth control and remind her to be same.

But 14 is a little to young.
No, don't let her have sex now.



I know a person who started having sex when she was 13, and you don't even want to know what she gets up to now.



Oh, and if you let her do it now, she will carry on doing it all the time and coincidentally sleep around because she thinks it's OK.
well u being a father should be sensible enough to know that kids should not be allowed to have sex until the right age and your child is way far from that age, you cant let your child fall a prey just for the fun of it, cause a slight mistake also can make her life miserable, and i guess you dont even need suggestions you are a grown man and old enough to take a decision for such stuff...!!!!
I lost my virginity fully when i was 14, but then again I am male which is a totally different situation i think... but if they truly love each other then it's fine... my aunt and uncle have been together since 14 (which is also when the took each others virginity) and now have been married for 30 or so years...
I dont think 14 would be the best age for a teen too have sex, thats just my opinion. Because there are so many things that can go wrong. If she were too get pregnant, 14 is no age to raise a child. You should make her wait untill she is mature enough too handle the conciquinces.
WOW...I am ipressed how can a 14 year old daughter come up and say that to you...loool this is way funny....shes not even a kid, shes a baby....but in my opinion its not by age, its by who....1-100 would actually marry to the person at that age...I personally would not merry to someone whos not a virgin, thats for sure.
Where I live 16, is legal.



But then again, I don't think you can really put an age on it. Its all about maturity.



I'd love to know where people who think that turning 18 makes you a proper adult, you don't just magically grow up overnight.
Whenever they're emotionally ready, and in a stable relationship.



yeah, most 14 year olds aren't like that.
you are an idiot to actually let her have sex to begin with. convince her that what they have will only last for a couple more years so she should wait for sex when she finds the one who wil actually marry!
Whenever there ******* ready STOP ASKING THESE ******* QUESTIONS ! theres a million like them already. theres no certain age ! and even if there was no one would ******* follow it anyway !! jesusssss.
it's not really under your control...i guess kids SHOULD start having sex whenever they're ready to face anything assossiated with sex...like pregnancy or stds...
When you have a job can drive that means YOU yourself bought the car and can financially and emotionally handle the possible consequences of sex
well the legal age is 16

but it depends if she is mature enough to use protection and know it doesn't always work and is mature enough

to deal with pregnacy and sti's
Once they can support a child they can have all the sex they want. When they can talk to each other about what will happen if they make a child they can have sex.
How old should kids start having sex?



"KIDS" should not be having sex. PERIOD!!



Make her wait untill she is 18 and moved out.
shes still very young. it doesnt really depend on age. it depends on love. if shes truly in love with him then maybe you should let them.
Good god! Even 16 is way too young. She's not ready. If the boy really loves her, he'll wait. Remember if anything happens, it's all on your daughter. The guy can just pick up and leave.
They are too young, both emotionally and, financially.
"kids" should not be having sex.



I would say at 16 at least, however if shes not ready, then they should not.
Make her wait until marriage.
try and convince her that it will be more meaningful if she waits until marriage. let her know that she is going to feel more satisfying if she doesn't have sex now. She could make a big mistake. Kind of scare her by saying that if she thinks she is ready to have sex, then expect to get pregnant. There is always that chance. Birth control can stop working and the condom can break. So tell her that if she is ready to have sex, she needs to start preparing for a son or daughter.
