As bad as "us moms" hate to admit it..they are gonna have sex..and I think it is better for them to be "safe" than to be "sorry"..it shows responsibility for us to provide them and for them to use them....just my opinion
Would your opinion be any different if your stepdaughter were a stepson?
My wife and I had a disagreement about this very issue.
My wife feels as most of you here do. When she found out her 15 year old daughter (my stepdaughter) had sex, she said she was going to put her on the pill. I

Hey,
If you took all the oopses off the planet, and the children of those oopses over the centuries, world population would be only a few hundred thousand, instead of a few billion.
What always amazes me is what a blessing those oopses become.
Love the above stories!

LOL.
'Oops' moments have been around for a long time. My oldest sister was born 12 1/2 years before me in Dec. 1947; growing up when other kids' parents were celebrating anniversaries my folks always said they'd been married so long they forgot exactly when it was. They finally admitted to getting married in June of '47 and my sister had been very tiny at birth - just under 5 pounds - so they'd passed her off as a preemie. Turns out that they really didn't get married until August or September of that year - Dad was still in college and I think they married right before he went back for his junior year.
Actually I think "oops" moments happen a whole lot more often than people are willing to admit... our oldest DS J 26 was a bout with the stomach flu in which I could keep nothing down for 3 days - including my pill apparently.
Anyone at any age can have an "oops" moment, because people aren't perfect. I had to stand at a pharmacy counter and ask for Plan B at age 43 !
Simply because they "know what is expected of them" is no guarentee that they will follow that path.
