Beyond that, am I the only one who thinks Obama using his own daughters as examples of sexually active 6th-graders or even 10th graders is disturbing? The leftists certainly don't.

I know there are 12-year-olds in the world having sex. But it's not normal behavior.That is an erroneous statement as it stands. But it depends upon how normal is defined. It's normal from a biological point of view for pubertal mammals to have sex. Other points of view (religious, parental, etc.) may disagree

VERY disturbing! He also does not support giving medical attention to babies who have been born alive during partial birth abortion. That is a fact directly from his Ill. voting record!

“Look, I got two daughters 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first about values and morals, but if they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby. I don’t want them punished with an STD at age 16, so it doesn’t make sense to not give them information.”
That is downright creepy! Even thinking about the sexuality of two babies that age...his daughters, no less.
He learned well in the Madrassah the roles of boys and girls in this world!

The most troubling text was Obama speaking of his daughters having sex and pregnant at 12 years old. His daughters used as Democrat agitprop.
Obama responded: What I was saying was that my daughters are 9 and 6. And so if, at the age of 12 or 13, they made what I would consider to be a mistake, in having sex or unprotected sex, and ended up getting pregnant I think that statistically we know 12- or 13-year-olds who are having children are much more likely to be impoverished, are much more likely to have health problems, are much more likely to have trouble raising that child.

The first twenty-three words sound nice, but--if I'm beating a dead horse here, I apologize--just what are those "values and morals?" that he would instill in his daughters?
Kids make mistakes; that is a given. A child is not a punishment. There are options for pregnant teens (and in some cases, pre-teens) other than abortion, but the point would be lost on Obi-Wanna Snowme, Master of the Farce.

I am going to teach them first about values and morals, but if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby.So essentially, he wants to teach them 'values and morals'; but he also wants to make sure they know that there are no negative consequences for disrespecting those 'values and morals' - thoroughly typical.

If you listen carefully to his answer,
you’ll hear that he wanted to make sure that he didn’t say that having sex at 12 or 13 was a mistake, but qualified it with “unprotected”.
Obama’s stated, verbalized opinion is that it would be OK, even for his daughters, to have “protected” sex at 12 or 13. To state otherwise would probably be too judgemental for the lefties.
Also notice, conspicuously absent from his response - the “A” word - ADOPTION.
