While people would want to say that teenagers are too young to have sex, it is a known fact that a lot of them do not think so and despite talks regarding abstinence, they still engage in sexual activity. Since a lot of teenagers cannot be controlled when it comes to having sex, it is then prudent to simply help them practice safe sex. Practicing safe sex when it comes to teenagers is seldom thought of since raging hormones often get the best of adolescents. Arming teenagers with the knowledge of how to practice safe sex, if they do decide to engage in premarital sex, will not only help prevent teenage pregnancies, it can also help with preventing the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and other similar problems.

1.Condoms. This is usually the first thing parents tell their kids to use when they do get to that age where they want to be sexually active. Using condoms is most probably the safest way to prevent both unwanted pregnancies and STDs at the same time and condoms are also the easiest form of birth control to obtain. Safe sex with the use of condoms is necessary when you are not sure about your partner or if you think your partner has been with someone else other than yourslef. Condoms help prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases like AIDS, gonorrhea, and herpes. It also helps prevent unwanted pregnancies.

2.Oral Contraceptives. While seldom prescribed for teenagers, oral contraceptives can help prevent unwanted pregnancies but not the spread of diseases like AIDS or herpes. These can only help with the prevention of teenage pregnancies, and to ensure that you do not get any STDs, you may need to make sure that you are in a monogamous relationship.

3.Monogamy. This may not prevent pregnancies but it does stop the spread of sexually transmitted diseases or prevents it from infecting you and your partner. If you and your partner are only engaging in sexual activity with each other, then you do not have to worry about getting diseases that can be passed on through sex since you and your partner are only seeing each other exclusively.

4.Other birth control methods – There are a number of birth control methods that can be used to prevent pregnancy but these do not prevent the spread of STDs. There are female condoms, the oral dam, birth control injections, and other similar contraceptives that can be used by a girl to prevent pregnancy. To avoid getting STDs, however, the use of these birth control methods should be paired with monogamy or even the use of a condom.

5.Abstinence. While this tip is the most difficult one to get your teenager to do or to even consider, it is still the best one to tell them to use. Abstaining from sex until they are more mature or responsible for their actions can be difficult to do but is still the safest when it comes to preventing unwanted teenage pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases.

Dealing with your teenager is tough. Dealing with your teenager’s sex life is even tougher. When it comes to giving advice to your child about sex, it is probably one of the most awkward chats to have. However, studies have found that talking to your child about sex, is not as awkward for your child as you might think.

Whether you want to think it or not, you kids are talking about sex with their friends on the school field. And it is not an uncomfortable topic for kids to learn about. I mean, it is taught in like grade 3 now, right? So if kids are getting exposed to “the talk” earlier in life, your children are already exposed to the topic of sex.

Also, whether you think it or not, your teenager (or child) does like to talk and have debates with you. They do like to share opinions with their parents, and they do like to sit down and have an in-depth conversation.

However, the issues come into action when you start to give your teenager advice. Teens do not like to take advice from anybody, especially their parents. So, I suggest you think about how you are going to talk to your child about their sex life, and approach it in a different way.

-I am NOT saying ignore your kids sex life. If you do not talk to your child about sex, there will be some serious consequences. So if you give “the talk” properly, and are armed with the facts, it will go a lot smoother.-

The #1 worst thing to say to your teen when talking to him/her about sex, is “don’t have sex until your married”. I don’t care if you don’t like what I am telling you, because this is the truth. Teens do not like to be told what to do. And especially when it comes their sex life.

Many teens feel that by having sex it will make them an adult, make then more mature and older. But that is where the problem is, if you talk with your child and tell him/her to not have sex, they are not going to listen to you. They will think that you don’t want them to grow up, and that you don’t want them to have any fun.

But, as you and I know, having sex too young is fun for a little while, but could have life changing consequences. However, I am not telling any teen TO have sex and I am not telling any teen to NOT have sex. They need to make their own decisions.

Teens like to have control, and I support that. But you must give them the proper facts for them to control their life for the better. If a teen knows all the facts about having sex, they most likely will choose NOT to do it. Because they will see that they are not emotionally ready, and that they are not ready for the responsibility.

Teens are a lot smarter than you might think, and they are more than capable of making their own choices. However, while you are talking to your child about sex, I suggest that you tell him/her the goods and bads. Do not make it sound like it is not fun, because they will not believe you. And don’t tell them it is fun, because they will not take sex seriously, then you might end up with a teenage father or mother in your home.

I suggest that you sit down with your teen, and talk to him or her about sex. Equally talk about the positives and negatives of having sex, and I would suggest that you have a very informative book for you teen to read on hand.

I would suggest “Changing Bodies, Changing Lives” because the author explains to teens (in teens vocabulary) the goods and bads of having sex to young. It will be a great way for your teen to come to a realization that they might not be ready to get intimate.

I have coached many teens, and I always get them to read “Changing Bodies, Changing Lives“, and after I have had my meeting with them, I phone them up and ask how they are doing, and just schmooze with them a little. Then I get down to the serious topic. And, every teen who understands the goods and bads of having sex, will come to the realization that they’re too young to be having sex.

Some of the teens even told me that they came to the conclusion that they will not have sex until they’re married. I’m not saying that is for everyone, but if a teen I counseled has made that choice for themselves, I totally support that.

I think it is very important that we make our teens make their own decisions. I believe that we do need to guide them with the proper facts and knowledge though. And most of the time, if we give them the proper facts, they will make the right choice. I suggest that you get your teen (or child) to read this book. It will teach your kid everything good and bad about having sex. It will also teach them about safe sex, and the emotional benefits/consequences of having sex.

Every teen that I meet with as a Life Coach, comes up with the same answer about this book. Not only is it good for me to give to my clients, it is also a great tool for you as a parent. You can read it yourself and learn how to talk with your child, or talk to your child and then give them this book to read. “Changing Bodies, Changing Lives“.

People have long seemed to attempt new ways to explore and heighten their healthy sexual pleasures with their love partner. Generally, these natural curiosities had been limited to playful experimentation like varied positions, Tantric Sex (sexual yoga), and stimulating talk. Others have included increasingly risky sexual behaviors, such as unprotected sex with multiple partners, marital affairs, auto asphyxiation and illicit drug use.

Although hypnosis can often play a vital role in the treatment of a variety of therapeutic issues, ranging from impotence and premature ejaculation to marital discord and decreased libido, its recent misuse is creating new “safe sex” concerns. Even though “Erotic Hypnosis” can be used as an adventurous exploration of one’s human sexuality and pleasure, the use of any hypnosis should be limited to those properly trained in its application. The proliferation of self-hypnosis programs, however, makes it impossible to fully regulate its private use.

The popularity of books and videos such as “The Sensuous Woman”, “My Secret Garden”, “Secrets About Men Every Woman Should Know”, and “Better Sex” proves that there is a growing market for information that celebrate healthy sex. Peter Masters’ 2001 book, “Look Into My Eyes”, is one of the first to celebrate the use of hypnosis to bring out the best in one’s sex life!

Hypnosis is an often-misunderstood phenomenon that is basically an exercise in deep meditation. Once in a deeply relaxed state, one’s mind develops a natural, heightened focus. It is this fixed concentration that affords one the unique ability to intensify pleasure, via the guided imagery of Erotic Hypnosis, like manipulating a dream, but more absorbing.

As with any sexual experience, trust between partners is vital. By the time one’s relationship may develop into something more physically intimate, there is usually an assumption that enough time has evolved to develop positive trust between partners. Earlier within the relationship, however, one may find a sense of false security in phone sex. Although it can be a safer form of increasing intimacy, it is important to understand that if Erotic Hypnosis is practiced prematurely (especially over the phone), an unscrupulous partner could potentially take advantage of the other partner, without the victim even necessarily fully realizing it.

The potential danger arises from the fact that within this form of hypnosis, one leaves one’s subconscious mind open to suggestions that one desires. Although it is generally true that people do not typically accept, or act upon, suggestions that are inconsistent with their desires, a cleaver hypnotist could offer pleasurable suggestions that may seem reasonable, yet are really more self-serving. The result could be comparable to someone who may have had one too many drinks, who later wondered why they behaved so foolishly the night before. With Erotic Hypnosis, for example, a post-hypnotic suggestion could conceivably be covertly offered that might compel the victim to take the relationship to “the next level,” before they might have otherwise been ready for the advance.

Similar to any intimate encounter, it is invaluable that couples, who desire to experiment with this type of hypnotic experience, share a deep trust, honesty and mutual respect. Although it is not advisable to use any hypnosis outside of clinically indicated settings, respectful partners who care about each other will likely find this form to be a mutually surprising and stimulating encounter.

Don’t sleep with anybody who may possibly have diseases that you don’t know about.

Oral sex is also one of biggest reasons why STD’s can be transferred from one person to another. While some thing it is safer than vaginal or anal sex, the risks are still there.
