Silly me.

[Maddy McCall]

"Stirring things up" by saying that I think it's wrong to teach an adolescent boy that it's ok to tell a girl that he loves her, just to get in her pants.

1. How dare you try and mess with thousands of years

of programming?



:rofl:


Just FTR: I've let a guy think I liked him more than I did just to get into his pants
So it isn't just guys that do it

[Maddy McCall]

3. Advice like that coming from a parent is wrong.

In a couple of years, there'll be a thread: "My son got a girl pregnant and she's suing for child support."

2. did this happen in real life or on the internets?

[Maddy McCall]

5. internets.

I don't have any friends in real life who are that stupid.

:)

[La Lioness Priyanka]

12. if you have a link can you pm me?

yeah, i thought it was on the internets. people feel so much better about being assholes on the internets.

[Maddy McCall]

14. Sent it before you asked for it.

:D

[lizziegrace]

4. Oh Maddy...

when will you ever learn?? :eyes:


;)

[Maddy McCall]

7. Hey!

(I owe you a PM.)

Yeah, silly me. :(

[lizziegrace]

9. Hey back.

:hug:

Take your time. You've obviously been very busy causing trouble. :rofl:

[Maddy McCall]

10. That's me...

Maddy T. McCall.

T for Trouble.

:rofl:

[lizziegrace]

18. No surprise there...

:pals:

[SPKrazy]

6. I agree with you...

but what are you talking about :shrug:

[Maddy McCall]

8. Check your inbox in about two.

[Wapsie B]

11. There's a flamewar over that?

What happened? :shrug:

Not that that doesn't happen coming from both sexes, but that would be wrong to teach a kid to say that.

[Maddy McCall]

13. Nah, he's mostly getting pats on the back...

for teaching that to his kid.

When I stated an opposing opinion, I was scolded for "stirring it up."

:eyes:

[Wapsie B]

15. Where was that?

pm me the link please


Stirring it up? I don't think so.

[Shakespeare]

17. Link. Me. Now.

Please.

[havocmom]

25. Me too. What happened, Maddy? And where? PMs gratefully accepted

:hi:

16. Not to sound super prudish

but encouraging teens to have sex at all is morally questionable.

I know they'll do it anyway, but anything parents can do to postpone/minimize it is probably good.

Why? Teens are stupid, and they will have unprotected sex. They will either get pregnant, get VD, or have a huge drama scene 4/5 times.

[Maddy McCall]

20. Yeah, I agree.

Just because "they're gonna do it any way,"--well, it's up to the parents to establish boundaries, even if the parent knows that those boundaries will one day give way.

[XemaSab]

23. And frankly, I think the best way to get kids to not have sex

is to teach them EVERYTHING about birth control, STD's, and the unpleasant parts of pregnancy.

I got a TMI overload in my high school health class that worked VERY well. :P

[Maddy McCall]

24. Yeah.

"Boys have cooties" only works til about sixth grade. :D

I agree with you.

[trof]

19. Well, I DID tell 'em I loved 'em.

And, at that particular moment 'in time', I really thought I did.
It was later that I kind of learned to understand that there might be a difference between hormonally induced, irresistable, urges and true affection.

[Maddy McCall]

21. But did your mama say, "Lie to get some tang, trof."

:rofl:

[trof]

22. MY momma NEVER said that.

She was on THEIR side, entirely and completely.
"You treat your dates like the ladies they are. Or should be."
Period.

OK, send me the PM.
This sounds weird.

[Pithlet]

26. I'm locking this.

The other thread was locked for the flames.
