I have a problem putting those 2 words in the same sentence not alone the thought of my girls doing it. But I guess whether we like it or not more kids are having sex at a very early age. I have 2 teens now and all I can do is give them well Informed advice about the consequences of having sex. But I know one day I will have to confront this scenario god only knows how I will react.

Children should NEVER be having sex!  All I can say about this post is teach your children the value of their worth as well as everything there is to know about sex and share personal experiences... I feel like my mom's biggest mistake was not talking to me about sex and I became sexually active before I was ready which lead to me having a baby right out of high school and of course I wasn't ready for that and things are 10 times harder for me being a single mom!!!

Well, by children I'm not sure how young you really mean. If we are talking about teenagers I think we have to be realistic. They are going to have sex when they want to regardless of what their parents ( or virginity pledges) say.
I think you should encourage them to wait as long as possible and when they are in their early teens try to prevent them from having an opportunity.

But by the time they have a drivers license, good luck. I think it is way more important to teach them to be safe about it. I don't want my son to have sex when he is young, but if he does I want to know he will use a condom.
If he's safe , I don't think it will really matter in the long run whether he had sex at 16 or 18 or 20. If he's not getting a girl pregnant or catching a disease, of course.

Telling kids to wait until they are married is just ridiculous in my opinion. Marriage just doesn't mean what it used to. Most of them know their parents aren't together, or that people get married multiple times. If anything they will get married too early just to have sex.

 If you have a boy I think that you have to stress Respect for women and waiting until they are both ready. For a girl  you need to stress respect for herself and being sure she is ready. And watch for men that are way too old to be hanging around her.

Another thing kids need to know early is that it's not the huge deal that television and music makes it out to be.

I think kids should be taught to wait until marriage. There are WAY to many "kids having kids" stories that only end in misery and tragedy for all parties involved.

My grandfather once told my dad and aunt's  "If it's old enough to bleed it's old enough to breed. So unles you can provide for the results don't be doing it."  It worked dad didn't get married until he was 36.   My aunt's didn't have sex until after they married their husbands.

When they are emotionally mature enough.
If it were a law, some people would never procreate, and we'd be better off for it.

They can have sex when and only when they are ready to have kids and be married. Otherwise, they'll waste all their money on contraceptions and go from one woman/man to the next and they'll will end up objectifying each other and fidelity will most likely be harder to keep in the future.
