Your 9 year old daughter wanted a magazine.
You brought her the magazine.
now, why would you buy her the magazine if you know the contents and disapprove of them?!
She read the magazine.
She found that article about masturbation.
She tries it out.
i dont see the problem there. okay, it might be a little... weird... to think of a nine year old girl masturbating, but if shes, you know, physically far enough to do it, then wheres the problem? i mean, come on, dont little boys do the same as soon as it starts working down there?!
Then 2-3 years later she wants more and wants to have sex before she is even a teenager.
just because she "tried out" masturbation she wants to have sex? theres a big difference between masturbation and actually engaging in sexual activities with another person.
And because sex ed isnt tought in schools until highschool in some schools, they would most likely not know how to use protection, and then if they are misfortunete they might have a child before they are even 14 and most likely die because of the birth because they are so young and if the girl does survive she has to raise a child at 13-14 years old.
first of all, school isnt the only place kids could be taught about sex. ever heard of those people called parents? if kids arent taught about sex in school early enough, their parents should tell them everything about it, if they didnt anyway. i mean, what kind of parents would let their kid get into puberty without even knowing what the hell is happening to them?! horrible! so if the kid at some point does have sex and doesnt use protection for whatever reason, and then in fact does get pregnant... i dont think she will die. she can have an abortion. and if she doesnt, i doubt she will "most likely" die.
also, i think you cant really expect people to comment on a magazine theyve never seen, read, or heard of.
