    This was an amazing and great show (as all the others with Dr. Laura Berman). I think Oprah does an amazing job focusing on the main point too.
    Thank you, Lester, for making it possible to me to watch this and the other shows. I am from Portugal and I don't have TV at home (by choice). I just like your fantastic sellection ("Ellen" being my favorite!)
    Thanks once more. barbara

    Wow.... what an absolutely amazing shows this one! I love dr. Laura Berman and her way of focusing on how to approach the subject of sex with children and teenagers. I think her views, and I truly think her way of doing this could really help prevent a lot of the unfortunate sexual tendencies we see among young teens today. Thank you so much for sharing! I love these posts of the Oprah show, and I love my daily fill of Ellen as well! You are truly a lifesaver! Lots of love and gratitude from Denmark.

    I love the way how Dr. Berman's very simple questions about sex just REALLY drilled home all the physical and emotional risks of having sex. She almost "unintentionally" scared the girl from wanting sex at this young age.

    But at the same time - you do need to give them information for protection in case that is not enough!

    I totally agree with Gayle. I am all for education, but at 14 you absolutely should not be having sex.

    Shawn and anon. 1.11 - as much as you like Gayle's point of view, you cannot 'force' a child NOT to have sex. You must inform (and prepare). I cried when the young girl said she was scared (or didn't think of getting pregnant). We must inform our children of what CAN happen - even if THEIR too scared of thinking of what may happen. You have sex - You may get pregnant or have a STD - period. Are you prepared for that? Also, I think the fact that he thought 6 months to 1 year was a LONG time was epic. I tell my 15 yo daughter that all the time. Men and women ARE different. The hormones are their, for both girls and boys, but the expectation or emotional side is quite different.

    I will make sure my daughter sees these 2 segments. My points re-inforced.

    When he said 6months to a year was a long time I was gobsmacked and so glad they came on the show. I'm only 19 but I think 14 is far too young to be having sex, they're still children. I think sex before 16 is highly inappropriate, and it is obviously illegal. That was never mentioned.

    The legality of it depends on the state. Although he could be prosecuted even though he is the same age as her I believe the parent would have to bring about the charges. Probably not going to happen, no reason to get either involved int he justice system
