'Teen Sex Parties'--So this is now a hot topic, or should we call it an issue,
where parents/guardians are now hosting ‘ Teen SEX Parties” for their children/teens.
Recently read an article where it states a growing number of parents are doing this.
Recently read an article where it states a growing number of parents are doing this.
What is a “Teen Sex Party”?
Let’s explain; The act of teens having sex at home, (‘sex
parties’) with parents/guardian’s permission. In other words, parents giving their
child permission to have sex at home with their full knowledge.
The understanding or “logics” behind this is that:
- v If they(the child) are going to have sex, then they might as well do it with our (parent) knowledge; Since then
o
We
will know where they are
o
What
they are doing
o
Who
they are doing what with, when
o
And
that they are safe (not only safe in the sense of using contraceptives, but
also safe in the sense, that they are in the comfort of their home.)
In other words it provides:
- v a sense of knowing for these parents (the ‘who, what, when, where’ syndrome)
- v a sense of security for their child (providing a safe environ and ‘protecting’ the child)
- v and
the parents/guardians feeling the sense of connecting with their child (thus
fulfilling or gratifying their parent/teen misunderstanding – (failure
to understand : misinterpretation: quarrel, disagreement –merriam-webster.com)
Now while, you can try to understand the logics of these
parents/guardians that entertain these ‘sex parties’, we are also left with several thoughts. One being what our society has become, and what we are creating for our children. Let's explore!!
____________________________________________________________
Let’s examine the role or definition of a
parent/guardian/caregiver.
Now anyone can argue that to specify a specific definition is left to individual parenting style and customs; and while this might differ according to geographical location and other factors like ethnicity, (amongst others) the fact still remain that we are guided by natural parental instinct, (or natural caregiver instinct); so notwithstanding all our differences, (cultures, countries, etc.) our roles as parents/guardians/caregiver are the same.

This
allows us to:
- v Be responsible for the promoting and supporting of our child/children's: (usually from birth to adulthood)
o
Physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and intellectual
development.
As stated,
these parents might feel it’s their right tand/or obligation to have these ‘sex parties’ for their
child, and if not illegal (against the Law) why should you care?
The fact that
this is an issue, where parents/guardians feel like they must conform to giving
approval to this behavior, speaks Volume.
Would this be a part of the
parent fulfilling their child’s, physical, emotional, social, intellectual,
development?
__________________________________________________________
- v Is this Parenting Pressure?
- v Is this the Standards and /or precedence we want to set for our children? (considering they are our future)
- v Who is in control- Parent or Child?
- v If parents lose control, who does our children look to for guidance?
- v Children needs guidance, principles and guidelines to live by, thus the reason for an adult presence. Where are the boundaries drawn?
- v If there were never any issues, before now- Why consent now? In other words, why the acceptance to this behavior now.
- v Is the statement made by parents stating: “They are going to be doing it anyway, so might as well at home, where they are safe”; Is this True?
- v Or do we have such low values of our children, that we believe they are all having sex?
- v What thoughts, if any have been given about the pressure and repercussion that are and will be incited by tolerating this behavior (Added peer pressure to those who won’t conform)
____________________________________________________________
The main question now is;
Without getting into any deep philosophy, it is a fact that we are guided by ethics (moral philosophy) and this usually determines our standard of conduct. So,
v Whose principles, ethics, standard, governs
your life? In other words whose principles do you live by?
Let’s see:
whether our ethics/principles are based off;
o
Self-principles: Your own Ideology- To live by your own
standard.
o
Other’s principles: To live by another person ideology
and standards.
o
Adapted principles- Like the “Five Moral Principles of
ACA.” (amongst others)
What is the basis/foundation/origin of
these principles/standards? Are they
fallible? Definitely; since they possess a human element, where our only
constant, are constant error and constant change, thus our constant need to want
and demand more.

Have we become
such a society, where as adults, parents, guardians, caregivers, instead of:
v Teaching and instilling =(to introduce by gradual, persistent efforts; implant -free dictionary.com) values
in our children
v Providing instructions, literatures of
scruples =(a moral or ethical consideration or standard that acts as a
restraining force or inhibits certain actions.)v Teaching and instilling =(to introduce by gradual, persistent efforts; implant -free dictionary.com) values
in our children
v Supporting our children’s intellectually by educating them to be strong individuals with quality self-esteem, so that they will not fall prey to peer pressures, and/or other pressures of the society. Where they are forced to think that their ‘popularity’ (‘cool kids’) and getting ‘attention’ stems from their sexuality, which in turn gives rise to their false empowerment and false security of sex.
v Setting and being a positive, exemplary =(serving as a pattern: deserving imitation: commendable –Merriam-Webster) example for our children.
We have conformed to depravity, thus giving into immorality and corruption of our society. Instead of conforming, let's teach some core values to our children.

FAITHFUL. His Principles remain the
same; yesterday, today and forever.
