What Parents Need To Do To Avoid Teenage Pregnancy

Parents in our world today shy away from responsibilities, which is the uppermost thing in life and pursue just the shadow. Parents put our careers first instead of taking time to put all we can to make sure that our teenagers get all the protection and guidance they need from us at their early stage.

Uuuuuuuuh!! What does she mean by this? I mean that as a parent, you need to do many things about you teenager (sons and daughters), you need to be his or her best friend most especially the girl. In the sense that those questions in her mind will not be thrown to an outsider who may and definitely will deceive her. Get use to her so that she will trust you and ask any question as if she is out there with her friends.

How can I be a friend to my own teenage son or daughter? It may sound difficult but it’s easy and pays a lot. First and foremost, get close to your teenage daughter by giving answers to all her questions when being asked, if she as a teenager finds it difficult to ask, force it out from her by asking some questions yourself.

As a parent you need to talk about sex with your teenager, do not shy away from it, tell them what sex is all about and how good and bad it is to have sex.

How do I start this? It’s easy; you as a parent can start by talking generally about sex and relationships, naming all the reproductive organs and their functions. Go through your teenager’s lesson notes and find out what he/she is been taught, even if you have nothing to contribute, as a parent use your initiatives and say something
