Appropriate conversation for teenagers
One of our other threads brought up an interesting topic, my 17 year old son is dating a girl who comes from a conservative (fundamental) Baprist background. They are now at our church and have been for a couple of years. Interestingly enough, her parents do not believe in any kind of birth control (she agrees with them). She is 17, she has a 4 month old brother.
She and my son have been talking about birth control, which has spurred my son into raiding our bookshelf for resources, Evangelical Ethics being one of them. It has become regular dinner time conversation at our house.
I was told by someone that this was entirely inappropriate for teenagers to be discussing topics such as birth control.
Just as an aside- they are not having sex, and the discussion was raised because they were talking about things that would come up if they got married.
What do you think?
