If you're not mentally mature enough to choose to consent to sex, then it would follow that you're not mentally mature enough to choose to refrain from granting consent to sex. This would seem like statutory rape in reverse, perpetrated by the churches and the parents. It's no secret that parents and culture have an enormous influence upon children, and it's natural that they should do so. But certain choices should be left to the individual who, upon reaching maturity, is equipped to make those choices. Encouraging children to make choices and commitments that they are not mentally prepared to make, simply in the hopes that various societal pressures and the force of their having supposedly voluntary committed to such will ensure their maintaining these ill gotten promises, is both unethical and abusive.
I believe this to be nothing but the grooming of human maers (sp?) In order to faithfull dads give them away as trade. It is obvious.
Other than that, me and my wife already have the plan that when my daughter reaches that age, my wife will explain the technical parts anout the menstruation, as she has first hand experience, and I will explain the scientific intricancies of human sexuality. *scared*
The emotional part of that will be hers to work with. I will give the support that I can.
It creeps me out, this daddy dearest purity thing.
