Dear Aunty S

My daughter wants her boyfriend to stay weekends in her bedroom because she says they already have sex so there’s “no big deal.” They are both school students.

They are sixteen and my husband and I disagree when it  comes to what we should do.

He says let him stay and I say no.

What do you think?

 

Aunty S responds:

Your house, your rules!

And what in heavens name is your husband thinking when he says that this is appropriate!!!

They are kids!

The boyfriend will move on or may be your daughter will move on to another sexual partner and are you going to let her have a parade of boys in her bed??

When she is grown up I can guarantee she will be disgusted with you both for not setting boundaries.

I’m afraid I have many stories in my head from girls who never recovered from their parents lack of parenting.

When she leaves home she can have sex with who ever she wants.
Whilst under your roof please provide her with a safe moral environment.
