I just want to throw in - for any other parent that reads this thread - that when/if you answer or hear ANY questions about ANY type of sexual activities you need to tell your child about the risks - including STDs.
Kids are having "other" types of sex now because they think they won't get pregnant but they don't realize that they can still get STDs...
And let's be honest - if kids really understand how nasty STDs can be, that'll probably scare them away from doing some things for awhile longer (at least it did for me when I was young - haaha)
