Great post- thank you for this. I am currently dating someone who is 20 years my senior…. at first I was hesitant in my attraction for him, as he know he was with me, but everyday proves to be more and more rewarding.

Thank you!

Life is definitely too short to waste on dating the wrong guys just based on what other people think you should be paired with.

I have had a healthy 3 year relationship with someone 18 years older than me and he’s my trophy boyfriend because my heart says so.

You’re the one in a relationship with your man, so it’s really nobody’s business who you are in love with.

Just came across your blog. We have been reading about the Republican Vice Presidential candidate, and policy matters apart, while I admire her resolve and guts to go ahead , deliver and take care of her Downs syndrome affected 6th child, I am absolutely aghast that her 17 year old daughter is pregnant, and the parents were simply not bothered about what was happening. If they cannot spare the time to teach their kids how to be responsible, they simply need to prioritize their stuff better. Vice Presidency will give you a great 4 -8 years, but you’ve messed up your child for life.

I blog from Mumbai, India, and although globalization has hit us, we still wonder about how the mother can stand up in a convention and treat the whole thing as a show of family values…..

don’t be talkin’ trash about Juno, I love that movie! I don’t know that girls are having babies b/c they wanna relate to the main character… i just don’t believe that. But in a time when it’s casual to say, “i wanna have his babies” as a reference to liking someone… i can see where younger kids can get the wrong idea. But chalk it up to television and media that feed images of what girls should look like, how they should act like, show what gets you attention, fame, money, love, etc. It’s maddening, all of it. But although i don’t know if i agree with all of paragraph one… I do agree with paragraph two. Kids do want to grow up too fast and they take on things that they are not ready for… but we should blame ourselves a little… and parents need to recognize that they can still sit down and talk to their kids about these things. Big topic…. you could write a whole new blog around this.

I believe that teenage pregnancy (excepting that as resultant from rape) is a symptom of something gone wrong in the family. Girls with little or no self respect are more likely to get pregnant at an early age. This can come from a lack of attention, lack of proper boundaries, lack of supervision, lack of involvement in their lives from especially their fathers and even some kind of assault or abuse sexual or otherwise – even verbal. You can’t blame it on games or baby dolls. There is nothing new there. Girls have been socialized to nurture babies forever – it is nearly universal. (One tribe in, if memory serves me correctly, New Guinea encourages boys to be more nurturing than girls).

These girls are at risk because their families have let them down in one way or another. Having sex – even having a baby suddenly gives them something and/or someone to be a part of…

I agree with all that you wrote.

Whenever I see women dressed inappropriately, I always think to myself, “What are you advertising?”

My wife and I have a fifteen year old son, Dylan. We have had our ‘birds and the bees’ talks. I warn him about the women that you posted about. I tell Dylan, “You want to marry a woman just like your mama!”

By the way, I went school at Lees-McRae College, right up the mountain from Boone and Appalachian State. We used to make trips to the ASU campus, because the small, little quaint town of Banner Elk can be so boring. Besides, Lees-MCRae was quite the suitcase college!

hummm. you didn’t tell me you wrote this one babe! or did ya? anyways, in hindsight… the situation didn’t shock me b/c i know that some people DO act like that. I just had the wrong idea about the place in general. I thought that it was more of a hip-hop “college” club with younger people. Of course what we saw were 35 and overs who have probably been divorced a couple of times… has a couple of kids (all with different daddys)… and with the obvious lack of fashion sense. Call me “square” but sex and dancing are completely different.. or at least SHOULD BE. If we look at the movie Dirty Dancing… we had girls that would dance right up on the guy. Both people were active participants in the dance!… plus, their attire was one that covered most of the bodies. The dances are sexy… and not sex. Some of these N-Clubers need to be arrested for indecent exposure. Not to mention that lady that “backed that ass up”… against my will…into me. I’m scarred for life. (sigh) i l oooo
