Teens find the benefits of not having sex decline with age
Date:1/8/2008

during the course of the study.

Although more research is needed to understand why that might be the case, say Brady and Halpern-Felsher, they say that sexually experienced teens may reflect upon their past experiences and come to value selectivity about sexual partners or appropriate occasions for engaging in sex.

Refraining from sexual behavior should feel rewarding, and engaging in sexual behavior should be based on maturity and readiness, Brady said.

We often focus on abstinence in sex education programs. It may be that, when we do this exclusively, were not meeting the needs of those adolescents who choose to be sexually active, and may be failing to give them the tools to select the most caring partners for them, the right occasions for engaging in sex, and the best strategies for engaging in safer sexual behavior, she said.
