Fantastic advice. Who are the other two people you were talking with? I didn’t catch their names.
Maybe Dr. Meeker should read this book about sex an the Dutch.

The parents talk openly about having sex at 16 and that it is not a bad thing. And, the Dutch teens have less HIV and teen pregnacies then the U.S.
If your teen wants to have sex let them know only have sex if they feel they are ready then get them birth control. There is no reason to wait until marriage if you are ready.
