This week Aurelia tackles some questions about teen dating. She is joined by guest Tricia Gardner from Timesaver VA, who asked some important questions about her own daughter and dating. No doubt other parents of teenagers have these same questions!

Listen in to the advice Aurelia gives about whether or not parents should meet a boyfriend or girlfriend. Would you hand your baby over to a total stranger? No, of course not, yet that’s what parents are doing when they don’t meet their child’s chosen partner. A simple 10-minute visit can begin the process of knowing this person with whom your child is spending time.

Birth control for teens is the other tough question and there are MANY differing viewpoints. Follow your own religious/moral beliefs but just know that ignoring the subject will not make the issue disappear. Many times, if a teen decides to have sex, it will happen with or without birth control.

If you want to voice your own opinion about these questions or have some other questions about teen dating, call our Listeners’ Line at 214-615-6505 ext. 4245
