the role of parents

The author is seriously confused.

1) Parents are extremely influential on their children,

2) Their children are going to have sex regardless of what their parents think so the parents should just go along with it....

I propose option 'three'....use parental influence to help their kids make good safe decisions regarding sex, with abstinence always being the best one.

But that might result in the kids not thinking that I'm "So Cool", and they might not be my best friend anymore, troubling as that is to me. /s

This was a common practice among the upper middle class upper west siders of manhattan two decades ago—when I was there teaching at a private high school.

I’m surprised its taken this long to get out into the general culture.

What the hell? I wasn't perfect, but I wouldn't disrespect my parents to try and pull this at their house.

Mom would kill me.

...She elaborates, describing parents inviting the teenager’s partner over, having a nice dinner and then the couple “toddles” off to bed together. (In reality, that’s just permitting the behavior to take place, not actually educating.)

"Parents"? I wouldn't refer to these kinds of people with that term. Even a pimp has a descriptive name.

So you want to date my daughter? Well, let’s talk about that out in the barn while I show you my new wood chipper...

a promotion by a league of child-molesters?

A friend did that. His first grandchild was born after the couple broke up.

Sigh. I was born 45 years too late.

Best quote from a commenter the Huff Post page:

“How Do You Feel About Sex and Teenage Sleepovers?
I’m cool with it so long as my daughter’s male friends are fully aware of the fact that throughout the course of the night, they might find me leaning over them with my chainsaw while uttering the words, ‘go ahead, boy......give me a reason.’”

When you have zero morals this is acceptable behavior.

Genuine Christians know exactly what this is. They’d be accepting of it if a marriage ceremony took place earlier that day.

I suspect the teens could teach their parents a few things.

[Sergio]

“We decided to do it God’s way and basically had a godly agreement that we would help each other get to heaven.”

Probably the most beautiful thing I have read with regards to how a marriage should be.

“Why not teach children how to have sex well"

This used to be called "corrupting a minor" and child protective services would pay a visit.
