Teen sex is a topic that many parents are too timid to approach their children about. Parents want to view their children as babies even after they grow a pot belly, go bald, or have their first bypass. This means that they risk missing being there for their children at their most critical stages.

Enter puberty, enter hormones, enter sexuality, and enter the internet. There is so much sex in our environment today its hard for your children to not be exposed to it. It's enough to give a geezer a stroke and shock the living crappola out of your parents but it’s likely, if you’re a teen or younger, you're probably used to it. In fact, sexual content is so commonly used, I’m sure many teens don't notice it as much as parents do. This fact in itself scares the parents but not always enough to sit down and discuss sex with their teen. 

MSNBC News tackles the issue of teen sex and gives us all some advice on how to deal with it. It's a good read and helps to educate people of all ages. Give it a look and more importantly, discuss it as a family.
