Bottom Line
Posted: 09-19-03 12:06pm

Ok teens, here's the bottom line. So you're having sex. First of all, you need to take a good hard look at this. Try and throw away your childish views of this. Sex was always intended for grown ups, so now you are to act grown up. Acting grown up means you need to become responsible. Being responsible for your actions means taking care of your body. Taking care of your body means not having unprotected sex!!!! Mad
if you want to have sex and act all grown up and miss out on part of your childhood then you better get ready to have a child then if you are not going to use protection! It's simple really. Go out and buy a box of freaking condoms. No, they are not glamorous, not glorious, not romantic, but think of the alternatives. Children and disease. Girls, have a little respect for yourself. I wish I could type in all caps but this place doesn't let you, ...If you don't want to have a baby...Use a condom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you find out you are pregnant, it's a huge concern, but you can work through it. You don't have to run out and get rid of the baby. Honest. There are other solutions. You need to find someone and at least talk them out. Then after all the information you get, you still don't want the child and want an abortion that is up to you. But you need to tell your folks, and get educated about babies.

Also you need to know that you don't have to sleep with someone to show them you care. If you are 13 there is no way you could be 'in love' with someone. You don't even know who you are yet. You might feel in love, you might think you're in love, but it's just a new set of feelings coming out that you want to explore. And explore them you should. But not by sleeping with people.

If you would like to speak with me in private and talk about things without being judged, you can email me.

Look, I know that some harsh words were said. But I am not just a little 13 year old who is just starting to have emotions for boys. I have been throught many trials and tribulations in my life. At the age of 15 I was raped and didnt trust any man I came into contact with. 2 years later I found someone who treats me better than you could ever imagine. I know that a child is a huge responsibility. But I made a mistake and now (if I am pregnant) I have to deal with it. I have a very supportive and loving family who would not turn their back on me. I know that being 17 sounds young..But I had to grow up at a very young age due to parenta problems that I lived with all of my life. Im not proud that I might be pregnant. I never said I was. But it was my mess up and now I have to confront my problem head on. I am not an immature little girl who knows nothing about anything. I am very intelligent for my age. I just thought that I would share that with you.

It sounds like you have a straight head on your shoulders. Good luck girl. God bless and i'll keep you in my prayers. If you do end up having a child, it seems like you'll know what you're doing.
