I'm worried for my freind. He and his girlfreind are both deeply in love with eachother, and they are both underage. They have been very close to having sex, and I'm worried that they're going to do so without protection. I don't know if I should talk to him about it or not.

xapathyxrebornx agony auntHi, here in England we have an advert for friend in this position

its basically a guy and a girl, theres two adverts ones is where a young couple used a condom and one is without (ill mainly talk about the guys and how they spoke to eachother)

WITH: A guy and some mates are getting ready to play football (soccer for you) get talking about a girl the main guy pulled and they ask if they had sex, when the guy said they had all teh guys treated him with respect and gave him the goal post gloves when asking why he had to be in gold they said out of respect "cause you need your rest mate"

WITHOUT: same scencario to the point of asking if he used a condom, when he replies no, the guys look at him, glare in fact and give him dirty looks, he gets the gloves thrown at him and he asks why he has to be ni goal, they reply with "because you need to learn how to put your gloves on"

See what im getting at? --i doubt you can stop them having sex BUT you can help them prevent risk of pregnancy and STI's. If your friend is male just have a casual chat to him about it, ask him if he plans on using protection, if he says no make him out to be a jerk and tell him off the risks. If he says yes, make sure he knows to go and get them and not have sex until he does....

If you friend is female do the same.

also if shes on the pill still warn of std's and stuff...

hope this helps message me if you need any more help x

I don;t know if its the same in America but in England, underage sex involves the boy being prosecuted and possibly done for rape, even though she consented! Tell him that and I'm sure he'll reconsider!

Mistify agony auntHey

You sound very wise.

If you are positive that you can't keep them from having sex, then YES, you should speak to them, or at least ONE of them about protection. There are tons of diseases out there, and not even to mention the risk of getting pregnant. Also - they could get into trouble if they are underage...

There are sooo many reasons to abstain, but the most important is emotional health. Like i said - nobody can really stop them, but you should definitely have a chat.

Well done...
