I need help...I am SO FED UP WITH MY MOM'S FRIENDS ...

YellI need help...I am so fed up with my mom's friends, my parents and even people on yedda telling me what to do with my life.  I have my own set of morals and values that aren't going to change just because someone said, i should be a virgin. Why don't they understand you can not raise some one who has already been raised? Yes i understand they have my best interests in mind however is it really best interests when this advice you give is mentally damaging? Are you really correct just because you are older? My mom was not a virgin when she got married, my mom's friend was not a virgin. And yes i obviously realize that sex can get you pregnant.  I have snuggled so much with the fact that i am not a virgin. And now they come to me when im 22 and tell me they are disappointed in me. I am 100% devoted to the united church and jesus. Practice what you preach people.

CJ,

   Do whatever you want to do.  You're 22 and you are responsible for yourself. 

If you want to stay a virgin, stay a virgin, if you want to have sex, it's up to you.

Just have safe sex.

Be honest and be true to yourself.

I think you should tell all these elders that at 22 you are an adult and fully responsible for all your actions. However, if you live at home with your parents you do have to abide by the house rules, such as who you bring into their home, making parties for friends, etc. It is their home.

As far as Yedda is concerned, I'll add this: If you don't want to hear the answers, don't ask the questions!

Meanwhile, here's a good general phrase you can use to make people think you're listening (though it has little meaning): "Thanks. I'll take that under consideration."

Turn off the television and teach your children how to think. ~ Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see. (B. Franklin) ~ I do not respond in Comments ~ Trespassers will be eaten. Cowards, idiots and spammers will be shot on sight. ~ Ask a Yeddai
