Mine: Kids are pretty great, actually. They are smarter than you think and can make sense of a lot of stuff you wouldnt expect them to. You should treat their thoughts and feelings with the same respect that you would give an adult.
If you look at the facts kids are leaning towards progress. Less underage sex, less drug and alcohol use, and women are more educated then ever. Boys are starting to lag though:/.
I don't think "less underage sex" is a good thing. It means that humans remain in a state of childhood longer and longer. They're achieving life milestones at later and later ages. I'm not gonna say when the correct time for everyone to start having sex is, but when I was in high school 15 or 16 was a lot more common than 18+
Is this an “I turned out fine” opinion, or is this based on something more concrete?
Do you actually think it's a bad thing to have sex at 16 years old? I think it's a bad thing that young people are so terrified of living their lives for so long
No, I never said that but it does show that this serious situation isn't taken lightly.
What serious situation
If you dont think sex shouldn't be taken lightly phew o boy.
