Re: Appropriate conversation for teenagers

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?
I don't see why this is an OFF topic for teenagers. Our teenagers should be taught how to think, reason and study the word.

BTW The bible does not teach against birth control

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
