A general rule....TEENS SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY PRIVATE TIME WITH THE OPPOSIT SEX.

This is the rule we go buy in your house hold, but it still didn't work.

I have 5 kids and 2 are now pushing 20.
A few years ago, my boy was 14 and had a 15 year old girlfriend. The rules were: she could come over our house and he could go over hers.
When at our house, they must always be in sight of an adult. Same rule at her house and her parents agreed.

Then...one day her parents were BBQing outside with friends and let these two go in to watch movies and you guessed it. Nine month later, we have a grandchild.
My boy had to find a part time job to pay child support. His grades went down and he ended up dropping school and got his GED. All this time, he had a hard time finding a steady job.

He had plan of being a Fireman/EMC. Now he is 19 and drives a beatup old chevy truck and working for minimun wages. By time he pays his child support, auto insurance and gas, he has no money left for fun stuff.
Yes, he has regrets, but whats done is done. He moved out and is now living with his friends because we were making him do his share of chores, ie: mowing lawn, washing dishes, etc...

He is no longer seeing our grandchild's mother. She wants to go to college and be a nurse, but having a child makes it difficult. Too much for a 19 year old girl to raise a child, go to college and work at the same time.

Don't be in a hurry to grow up. Take you time and be a teen and use your common sence. At 14, she dosen't know what she wants yet. Don't let her be a mother before her time.....

Hormons (sp) are hard to control, but you can control them.
