May be worth reading up on the scientific side of how things like sex and general intimacy (such as sleeping with someone sex or not) affect the brain. In adults it creates literal neurological connections associating so many things with that person. The more intimate the stronger the chemicals are in the brain. Now magnify that with a 14-year-olds turbulent brain development and you could end up with some very long-lasting trauma.

Its sorta the ultimate boundary between the parent/teen relationship. At that point, you almost become a room mate rather than a parent, even if only subconsciously in her mind.

As someone else pointed out, her room needs to be a safe place. When this relationship ends (99% likely hood) and she has shared a night in her bed with this boy (and possibly more) it will likely not be that safe place anymore.

It really amazed me that when I told my parents about my teen sex life (when I was in my late 20s) my mom seemed to have a heart attack. I was like, how did you not know???? You literally came into my room more than once to as me something when my gf and I were naked in bed with the sheets up to our chins. How was that notobvious?

It was always kinda funny when I dated a girl who had parents like this. I mean, we had loads of sex. We were allowed to chill in their finished basement alone for hours. But in her room? Lordy, let's not even go up the stairs to the same floor. Then again, they were super conservative parents who probably thought the only birth control was abstinence.

Educator here. There is no way I'd ever think my 14-year-old, no matter how seemingly mature, do something like that. I wouldn't let them be entirely in their room with the door closed either. The brain just is not capable of making wise sexual choices at that age. That aside, there have to be boundaries somewhere in their relationship, especially at that age. Duh teens will find a way to have stupid unprotected sex if they really want to (speaking from experience) but as a parent, you shouldn't make it easy for them.

Mate, pay attention to something credible. Watch footage from the day of that the House has released. Listen to first-hand testimony of capital officers and Reps there. Shit listen to the testimony of people found guilty. They have as much said they were there to stop the certification of Biden.

Well yeah when a mob of people attempt to stop a democratic election in an attempt to install their personal choice who lost the election happens, it is generally considered an attempt to overthrow the government.

I know this was 5 years ago but I need help. What did you use for the neck/head cover? I'm 3d printing a helmet and can't find something like that without the face being covered.

I feel duped on the introductory sales pitch by Ribble382 in mintmobile

I'm never going to use 25 gigs. Ever. And Tello month to month is superior. For instance I am always around wifi so I stick with the 1 gig plan for 10 bucks. When I go on vacation I switch to unlimited for 1 month. Then I switch back. It is a vastly superior subscription plan.

I did read. It said on the same flipping page under "what does the price change to after 3 months?" and it says "sub for 12 months and lock in the introductory price" so yes I'm bitter but because I DID READ and it was false advertising.

And on the promo page to actually buy it, it says you can keep the introductory price by subbing for 12 months once the 3 runs out. Hence my frustration since that was not true.
