I married at 16. My husband was in the army. We waited until he

started our family. Nice home, financially stable, I give birth to

my ex and I (when we were married) had *the talk* with her when she was
13. I assumed that it sunk in. I bought her the movie 13 in the hopes
that she would see what a downward spiral drugs and sex at a young age

Having sex is a biological imperative, and the hormones kick in at
puberty. All teens want to have sex, always have, always will.
However, teen pregnancies ar

This is an interesting question. I've got some older friends with a
26 year old who's just married and they're immediately looking to
start a family.
They're both employed college grads, but the guy w
Look - sex is one thing - it's the getting pregnant part that people should
definitely be worried about.
Have all the sex in the world, but until you're not only financially able

Don't know if this article made the rounds when it first came out... very
scary and sad.

directed towards your situation, I'm talking about these 13-15 year olds
getting pregnant ...
