Teen Mother Told To Keep Quiet About Other Boys

Maybe Cgriffin, the sex ed should come from your son's parents and not be left up to the school? If more parents sat down and talked honestly with thier children, and let them know it is nothing dirty or embarassing, kids would respect sex more, and not just "do it" for the sake of doing it.

Please don't rely on the school's sex-ed classes to inform your child about sex. I hope you would take the time to research what you should be talking to them about, how to do it and even get some tips on when to do it. Is important that we as parents make sure we inform them and make them comfortable to come to us. I know if my child has a concern or question, I want to have established that communication and know that they will be comfortable coming to me about it.

Well we started having sex ed when I was like 9 (so in the 4th grade) which is a good thing because I hit puberty that same year and it helped me to figure out what was going on with my body. But something I noticed was that the kids who didnt get sex ed that early started having sex eariler (like at the age of 12) usually without properly using protection. While I'm still a virgin at 16.

In a perfect world parents wouldnt even have to worry about money or exploit a teenage pregnancy or multiple dna tests to get food on the table, but its not a perfect world. I understand where Chantelles mom was coming from if she did this, but she could have kept her children and grandchild out of the tabloids and found another way to do this. As for Alfie, I feel bad for him because he honestly thinks he's the father, its going to be hard on him if he finds out he's not the dad. Chantelle needs to have a talk with a therapist or something, and I hope the baby is ok.

I feel like I need to clarify before someone jumps on my back about sex ed. When I said people would have sex earlier without sex ed, I said it from experience. My little brother had a pregnancy scare and he was 12, my ex best friend/ex boyfriend started having sex at 13, another friend slept with his girlfriend at 12, and another friend lost his virginity 13. The rest of my guy friends lost it at 14. So what I said was from my own personal experience not any statistical proof from some book or anything.

It's never too young to start learning about sex. Too many parents wait until they think it's time to have THE TALK, if they do it at all. Do not wait until then, being talking with them as they grow. Answer any questions, age appropriately, and just allow things to fall in naturally such as watching tv.

Come on now....what kind of parents are we dealing with in the first place. The girl's parents are on welfare in England and I believe there are 6 kids in that house.....dad can't keep it in his pants/doesn't know what a condom is and mom needs to be on B.C. pills herself. They allowed a 13 year old boy have sleepovers with their daughter. And what about the boy's parents....letting him sleep over at her house. Both set of parents need to be looked at by welfare of children officials for neglect. Might be a good idea to get the wee one out of either of those 2 homes.

yes that makes sense to talk to him my self, and i think i will take your alls advice and do some research on how to talk to him , i cant help it, i dont feel ready to explain to him about sex yet, he is still such a young boy, (he will be 12 in oct) i do feel uncomfortable. i also have to face my 7 yr old boy and 3 yr old girl when the time is right also. but thanks for your alls input!!!!i just know i have to do this, to hopefully avoid anything like this happning to my kids .

I don't understand people today. The parents are responsible to talk to their children. We do it in the schools because a lot of parents don't talk to their children. A lot of parents today just have no idea or don't care what's going on with their kids. They have the attitude, "Not my child." You can't take that attitude. Kids are kids and no matter how good they are, they will still experiment. So, all you parents out there, take the time to be with your child, get to know them, and listen to what they have to say. But at the same time, know what they are doing or where they are going. Make sure a parent is home if they are going to a party. My teenagers have gone to parties and left because although a mom and dad were there, they are still serving. These chaperones know it and say nothing. WAKE UP and parent you child and don't leave it to the teachers and then blame the schools because you are an asshole and can't teach you child between right and wrong.
I understand that sometimes things happen. But, come on, many partners at 15? TRAMP!!!!!!!!!!!! How do you like Penney?

Wow...

It would be a good idea to go on Maury's P. show and have her to take a DNA test to see who the baby's father is.

Cindy, This sad story should never had gone to the tabloids to begin with! As a proud parent of 2 grown kids, 24 year old young woman, and a 26 year old young man, I didn't have to worry about such things during their highschool years...They were "always" more pre-occupied with school activities, and chaparoned parties and school trips...My beautiful intelligent daughter was active in cheerleading, track team, and the debate team..Oh sure she had boyfriends and went to dances, but she also had a good, moral head on her shoulders, because we took the time to talk to our kids about sex before highschool even started! My son could have done all sorts of bad things, but he was more of an intellectual who enjoyed being on the English Lit. committee, and he was also into art...If kids are taught to respect themselves and others, they have a better chance of leading decent lives...I pray that little boy isn't really the father, and that girl desparately "needs" to keep her legs closed!!! God Bless That Poor innocent baby, they need to give her up for adoption to a family that deserves her and can take proper care of her without milking others out of money!!!

lol. i love that show.

The tabloids pay big money for these stories because they sell magazines - it is the fault of the people who buy this crap.

I don't which story is worse this one or the Chimpanzee one, both show pretty irresponsible behaviour on the part of the human adults
