Is there anyone else that think you should wait till your married to have sex!

I will teach them to value their body and it will be best to wait until marriage for sex. but I also don't live in la la land. I will teach them about BC and ways to protect themselves it THEY decide not to wait.

I was a virgin when my husband and i got together and so was he and although we had sex before we got married it is wonderful to know that we are each other one and only... and i will teach that to my boys. I wish we had waited the 6 months to get married but i cant change that now.... i am going to teach them that God created sex for a husband and wife and that it is a special gift just for their future wife, and how much it will be treasured if they are each others only...

I will teach them to value their bodies and to embrace their sexualities at the same time. I will not encourage any sort of sexual behavior at any time, because it's not my choice to make, but I won't shame them into believing that if they don't wait for marriage that it somehow makes them lesser, or damaged, in comparison to those that do. I don't feel that waiting until marriage is a responsible thing to do. I feel that the longevity of a marriage has alot to do with the sexual part of that relationship, and how can you know whether or not you are sexually compatible? You can't.  I will leave the choice up to my daughter, as my mother did with me, because she will know when she's ready, not me or anyone else.

I will educate my children and teach them to respect and value and trust themselves. I will not assume what is best for them or tell them what is best for them. I especially can not tell them it is better if you wait when i did not and i do not regret it.  My job as a parent is to educate them the best way I can and guide them through life not to raise them to fix what i feel are my own mistakes...

Me and my husband both were virgins on our wedding night.....i will def teach my daughter to wait til marriage.

I will teach them to value their body and not to go around undressing themselves at every given chance.

HOWEVER...

I didn't wait. And I'm glad I didn't. I was in a very serious relationship for 2 years and had sex when I was 17. Then I was in another very serious relationship and  got pregnant with my oldest daughter. Then (lol) I met my b/f (husband now) and I got pregnant a month after we started dating. Then we got married when our daughter was a little over one.

Now, I know what I did wasn't the traditional way...but come on! Worse things happen! Believe me!

I do believe in sex before marriage. What if you waited until marriage and your new husband was HORRIBLE!?!?! Could you really live with that? Seriously? I think you should test out the waters lol

It is important and I hope my children do wait.  But I am prepared to talk to them and help them make decisions for themselves if they choose not to.

My husband and I were not virgins when we met but decided to wait until we got married.  So we didn't have sex with each other until our wedding night. 

yup yup!

my children will learn the importance of safe sex. marriage is their decision not something i will expect from them. i want them to be happy in life and make wise choices. Once they're adults their sex lives will be theirs not mine. Sex and love are different things for me but loving someone and making love are amazing. I am very open minded regarding sex, love is so much more then that.

I will teach my daughter that her body is special and belongs to no one but her and God. She will know the negative consequences of irresponsible sex and that waiting until she finds the right person is better than giving into pressure and doing anything before she is ready. She will know that any boy who cant wait for her to be comfortable with saying yes is not worth and only after that one thing and not her heart.

Only giving her the option to wait till she's married won't guarantee that she will... my mom used to tell me that I couldn't have sex until I was 30 and we never had a serious conversation about sex until she found out I had lost my virginity at 15.
