Teen Sex - why do they do it?

Why do Singaporean teenagers have premarital sex? What can parents do to help this?

1) Encouragement

Encourage them to be more critical towards explicit sexual media.

Discuss sex openly at home so they hear about it from you instead of from their friends and the internet

Forge an open, trusting relationship with your teens so that they don\'t hesitate to come to you with their problems or sexual experiences

Highlight that pornography is an exaggeration of reality and discuss porn addictions openly with them

Educate them about the risks of premartial sex and importantly, unprotected

Expose them to contraception and encourage the practice of safe sex if you understand and accept that they are having sex
