Whats the one topic everyone is raving on? Sex. You hear it in the streets, in the movies, from friends, in any form of communcation really.
This topic only dawned on me after a family friend, who is in her teens questioned about sexual activites (I only wished my friend had no told me so as i would've liked to imagine her as innocent as she could in her teens so that she would not regret this one off move) and the numerous tv shows by mtv just added to it, such as; 16 and pregnant, virgin diaries, that this is really becoming a serious problem, in a negative way.
'Why rush into it' was what Oprah had asked of a teenage couple who face the everyday pressure 'to do' or 'not to do'. Why can't they wait.. Though I've never seen of this act in public, but i've heard from very reliable sources that there are teens doing it at the park. In my opnion, i don't think this is right at all, how are children going to keep their innocence sacred? You grow up, you learn, you explore - but this is all done with time.
I wish they would just take a deep breathe, slow down a step. You learn to crawl before you walk dont you? In there case, they've skipped the crawling and started running. hey don't have the foundation of what it takes to run, and what if you fall? Its scary to be faced with this reality that this gneration has become the Sex generation. Its daunting to me, and im sure to parents also. Though at times when i hear of teens have a sexual relationship with their partners, i question how they were raised, what morals did they live by, did they have any, was this just a spur of the moment? Don't get me wrong but this is not a blaming game and that i have laid blame on a saide. I don't blame parents for their children running loose, but i wish they had paid a closer eye to the situation their child is facing and noticing the enviroment your child is in. Use your gut instincts and tighten the leash when needed. If it doesnt feel right, say it, explain it.
It is a rebellious era.
