Things are bound to happen, and parents are dumb if they don't see that.

2 words , Jello Shots.
I could never bring myself to shave my legs etc, so ghey.
to this day, I feel a little weird in a speedo, even in brasil.

Is the girl pregnant?

**AsheanMT** · 07-25-2008, 08:48 AM

How the hell did the parents find out?

Yeah, I'd say it's unusual for kids not to hook up. I can think of so many times this happened on my teams at that age it's ridiculous.

Are you swimming at Masters Nationals in Portland next month, 4matic?

I sure hope her parents have told her about the birds and bees by now, have explained how to avoid STDs, got her that HPV shot and have given her a pack of condoms.

This isn't an easy discussion because the kids will ask the parents what they did at the same age and most parents don't want to admit the screwed the whole cheer leading squad or were considered the school slut. The truth tends to undermine parental moralizing. It's completely unrealistic to think that teens aren't tempted by sex and will try it at some point in high school (or earlier

(I'm not condoning tweener sex, though I know some of them are doing it)).

Call a lawyer if an adult was involved with your kid, otherwise it's just grandstanding so the parents won't be embarrassed in their community. They are probably more upset about the 'when and where' surrounding their daughter's sexcapades. Suing isn't about what the kids did - it's about saving face.

Shave and taper parties, J.O's, oh the memories.

aahhh, shave parties, good times...

tell the parents to keep their daughter away from ski racing, equestrian sports and ultimate frisbee if they are worried about her purity, and obviously swimmers must be avoided as well
church, school, and malls...
oh hell just lock her in the basement...you know just like that guy in Austria...

I can relate to this on a few levels. My 14 year old daughter is playing J.O. water polo next weekend, so I can relate to the parents concern. We expect a reasonable level of adult chaperoning to occur, but kids are clever, and when hormones are involved, they are down right geniuses. I would be pissed if it were my daughter, and there was poor supervision, but at the same time I don't expect chaperons to be able to watch every kid every second of the day.

There is one question I have for the lawyer toting parents...Why aren't they insisting their darling daughter be dropped from the team? From what I remember, it takes two to have sex (wankers don't count.)

I do think some form of discipline is in order, because kids shouldn't be sneaking off to have sex, but it needs to be evenly applied.

A few of the women I hooked with in college will be at the meet..

I'll be there working as Asst. Meet Director and I've been training long course every day. But, I have no plans to compete. I want to have fun, go sailing, play golf.. I'll see you there.

**Cono Este** · 07-25-2008, 10:10 AM

Id reccomend sending her away to an all girls boarding school. But what if she likes girls too?

Its just alot more complicated for parents these days.

Kids told the coach. Coach told the parents. He has to. If he didn't then he does have responsibility.

You should have entered for relays only! Too bad. Anyway, I'll make it a point to track you down. Are you going to the McMenamins social?

I agree with your take on the parents' motives. But suing whom? As far as I can tell no crime was committed- they're both underage- and there are no damages. What is this lawyer going to do?

**PowTron** · 07-25-2008, 10:14 AM

Sluts are cool...

This is crazy! Kids have sex, Parents need to accept it.

Which kids told the coach? The kids that had sex or the kids that made the video?

When my mom chaperoned my sister's youth orchestra on road trips (this one time...) she famously turned a blind eye to kids having sex but disapproved of them shacking up full time or using drugs and alcohol. This earned her the nickname "The Cohabitation Lady."

the kids NOT getting laid leaked it to the coach, no doubt.

Dude, smell my finger

**Huckin eh?** · 07-25-2008, 10:55 AM

Too many loser kids out there don't know when to keep their mouths shut!

And the 2 fuckers need to learn to be a little more discreet!

Otherwise, nothing bad happened.

Wow, in a classroom at 17...not bad work!

Um, ski racing was pretty damn coed, and the females enjoyed the male ski racers plenty.

Swimming is unique. It is the only true co-ed sport. You train together, travel together. It's not unusual for swimmers to be "hooking up".

Actually it's not. Track and Field is the same set up.
