    Apparently a policy think tank advised the Prime Minister of the UK to lower the age of consent to 14, which he rejected. Although it makes sense from the point of view of being able to get kids birth control legally, as a parent, that feels far too young. Is anybody with me on this? :ohmy:

    I know I would have been terrifed at 14 and wasn’t ready for that and think it’s very young. The problem is, if there are teenagers that want to ‘do it’, then it’s not likely to make a difference if it is legal or not! :ohmy:
