J 9 our world is a better place because of people like you . I for 1 as parent with a 13 year old well developed daughter and a 15 year old son and a 17 yr old son. Agree with you... my kids would have done so many things, if I had been a submissive parent, afraid or to lazy to enforce rules on behavior, grades... etc My kids have tried many things and they have been dealt with accordingly... and they know what is not acceptable in our home, and when they are out.. and their girl friends and friends know. I am at my children's school every day and I to see the bad decisions that these teenagers make that can screw up the rest of their lives. Esp our girls, we as women need to stick together to ensure that these generations of girls will not be door mats, sex toy's and punching bags, for the men of this world. That they can be educated, respected, well paid 1st class citizens of this world, and they don't have to use their bodies to get there! We should also be teaching our sons to be respectful of females, in private and public regradless of what the song lyrics say.

Okay. Depending on the 13 year old it could work. When I was 15 I dated a 20 year old. And I am 20 myself now and married to an 29 year old. He would have been 18 when I was 9. I was 18 when we got married. He was 27. Many people look at it wrongly but it all depends on the maturity level of the kids. But I do have to say that DO NOT DO SEXUAL THINGS. Having sex at 13 well the man could get in huge trouble. Satatory rape. He may not have forced you but it does not mean he cannot get charged with it. Just be careful would be my advice. If you feel pressured dump him. Not all guys want sex though. My husband and I were both virgins until our wedding night. Remember he was 27. Good luck and be careful.
