"Ten. Less Exposure to Sexual Aggression and Predators – Fifteen years after the press and the US Senate gave the President a free pass on having sex with an intern in the Oval Office, the teens whose moral compasses were shaped by those events are now teachers and administrators of public and private schools. This reshaped moral compass gives tremendous latitude to sexual behaviors of students and teachers on campus, and everything from electronic pornography to sex on campus is widely tolerated. Many schools still have impressive written rules, but the reality is most adults on campus look the other way even when actions constitute criminal behavior. The number of high schools where consensual sex between students is no longer against the rules is also surprising.
In our family home school, we ensure safety in this area by following the guidance of pastors and Christian counselors regarding appropriate chaperoning of mixed sex activities and appropriate parental monitoring and boundaries of electronic communications. "
First I'd like to say, posting of the top 10 reasons on a message board gives us permission to comment... So I don't wanna hear of any that "don't like it, don't click on it" stuff. See my thoughts below.
1. Sorry, but Bill Clinton getting is junk swallowed by that chubby intern has nothing to do with high school kids having sex. It has happened long before this incident. Sexual curiosity in post pubescent teens is a scientific fact and has in no way, shape, or form been affected by a sitting Presidents sexual exploits.
2. I’m sure your kids have access to electronic pornography with the phones in their pockets right now. Or are they not trusted by the temptation with such technology ? Also, I highly doubt sex on high school campuses are allowed. If so, I wish someone would have informed me of such when I was a student. It would have been a safer environment than on the side of a gravel road at night.
3. Have you read “many schools” written rules to qualify them as impressive? What standard are you using to base your judgment of these policies? If so, exactly how much time did you spend on each campus to compare their policies and what actually happens in these situations? Furthermore, how many incidents did you witness that could be constituted as criminal behavior?
4. I didn’t realize the schools could dictate what children do off campus outside of school hours. I’m fairly certain a teen’s sexual activity is the responsibility of the parent.
5. The entire last sentence reminds me of this clip from the movie “The Candidate”
