Raising teenagers

[Limited GM]

This will probably turn into a deleted thread considering most guys on here seem near a teenager than an adult, but...

Long story short my 15 yr old son had two girls come over after school to see him. They were here a couple hrs and then I became aware that it was..too quite. I went down stairs to find his bedroom door shut, which is a serious no-no in this house when company is here. I opened the door and all three are in his bed, tv on, lights out, under a blanket.

I carried the girls home and my son felt nothing inappropriate was done.....until I suggested I'd drive him back to the girls house and let him ask their Dads opinion.

Better yet, Im thinking of letting MX'r explain to my son how it would have turned out if HIS daughter had been here.

They were just tired dude. You have no idea how much work school is nowadays.

Ummm damn dude.

Well its about that age, I remember getting busted with a hand full of my gf by my mom when I was that age.I think you should let him talk with MX to see if he felt it would be ok to have his daughter in some bed, I have a feeling he won't think its ok.

Tad conflicted here...



One one hand I concur with you as a father that the behavior is wholly unacceptable.


on the other hand I would want to pat him on the back for getting the 3-some on at 15


We will concede to your initial judgement.

You might also mention it to the parents of the girls that they are now "Active" and let their parents take the appropriate steps if they haven't already.

As a father of a now adult daughter, if I would have discovered said situation when my daughter was 15, let's just say I would probably be still serving time on my sentence.

I dont think they were "getting busy", but IMO its still just a tad to much at their age.

I know at that age I'd been trying for any contact what so ever and been half blind with a 22" bicep by morning.

Just saying...

THATS EXACTLY what I want HIM to understand! Think I'll let him read that. thanks Bob.

Now speaking as an adult that raised many boys...

we know all of us were active around that age.
I got my first girl at 15...

I think an honest adult sit-down is needed for all parties.
The Girls are just as, for lack of a better word "Guilty", as the boy is.
Unless their cries for help were what alerted you...

and I Hate using the word "Guilty" because its natural, its going to happen with or without your guidance. Be it in the basement, back seat, hotel room or tool shed... if they want it to happen, it will.

You forgot that it gives you acne as well...
