I'm going to head toward the "have an adult friend/mentor you can talk to" because I've *been* that for a bunch of kids, and it was really helpful for them. But you can't of course *tell* teens that, they have to arrive there on their own. @sugarplumsmom – I know, exactly.

I agree - those chastity pledges are ridiculous. Like the teenager is really gonna take the ring off or whatever your symbol is, if they change their mind and advertise it to their parents. My mom was the last person I wanted to tell. Ugh… I agree – those chastity pledges are ridiculous.

That stuff bothers me, too. I also wince at the F-Bomb being dropped every five seconds by some. I mean, couldn't they think up another adjective? Speaking of embarrasing body part stuff, Olivia once saw a woman with really big boobs, and pointing at them, exclaimed delightedly, "Look! Mommy's milk!" I pretended I didn't know her. Yeah.
