I might have. I was big into pot in HS. LOVED IT. Was offered coke a few times. Didn't want to LOVE anything else. But it was only offered a few times because it wasn't readily available (and most of the people that did that shit were pretty much losers and I tended not to hang with them). Had it been available at every bar or store I went to back then, maybe I would have and who knows what would have happened.

Giving a kid a condom is not the same as educating people about sex.


I'm not saying that parents should give their children drugs. I'm saying that drugs should be legal (just like sex), and that the parents should educated their children about drugs (just like sex).


WOW, WHAT A CONCEPT, PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY.

They can't do it, because it's still against Federal Law. California has already tried this, and then sick Cancer Patients get sent to prison to die.

It was all due to those condoms. They made him have children.

If only she would have acted like sex didn't exist, he wouldn't have those kids.

Or better yet, if sex were illegal.

My mom gave me condoms when I was 16 until I went away to college and I still don't have any kids.

Sure it is. She told us she game him a big speach. "I know you are going to do it so you are going to do it safe. If you run out, tell me, I'll get you more." It didn't quite work out.

I believe this to be the most valuble lesson one can learn from their Parents.

That's not education.

That's assuming he knew.

There is alot more to learn about sex, than how to put a rubber on.

She didn't do her job.

And parents who aren't honest, and open, and tell the truth about sex drugs and rock n roll, ask for the same thing in return.

I think anything natural should be legal, in regards to drugs. If it takes manufacturing, such as cocaine, meth, etc, than it should be illegal. If you are caught driving under the influence it is the same as alcohol.

I am not sure what all this talk is about condoms, sex, and 5 kids later at 16 years old nonsense is. Lets get realistic.

I didnt really hear or talk of sex much and never tried it until i was 18. I was around "pot" since i could remember. My parents smoked it probably every other weekend until they started doing random drug testing at their place of employment. I had no desire to try smoking it until i was 23. I tried it about 3 times and haven't really done it since.

Why do some people think that just because I want something legalized means I think it's "good" or that everyone should do it?


I'm for drug legalization and prostitution legalization for example. I still think that they're both morally wrong. But that doesn't mean I think they should be illegal. I particularly don't understand why Christians try to do this. The one time that we've succeeded in legislating morality were during the dark ages - one of the worst times in human history. People must choose to do good. That's the whole point of the Garden of Eden. Forcing people to do "good" leads to another dark ages.

Didn't "hear or talk" about sex til 18? God damn... I had sex at 16 (almost 17) and knew lots of kids that were already active. I came from a pretty boring town, so there was a good bit of sex and drugs. Though, you're from Nebraska aren't you? lol, I'd assume it'd be MORE boring out there
