| I just found out that my daughter's very first crush (at 15) has AIDS.?
My daughter just found out that her boyfriend has AIDS. They have only been dating about 2 weeks and she really likes this boy. He was honest with her and I respect that and he didn't have any problems answering her questions. Unfortunately he was born with it.
She and I have a very open relationship and she talks to me about practically everything. I told her I’m not oblivious to the fact her hormones are running and if she decided to become sexually active that we needed to get her on birth control. Now I'm not saying that to her like, "go ahead XXXX, and have sex."
We are Christians and believe that God has a plan for us and sex without marriage needs to be practiced. A part of me wants to say, RUN GET AWAY from this boy. The other part of me trusts my daughter. Having a boyfriend with AIDS is scary but the boy living with AIDS is even scarier. I want to trust in God that he will guide her but I don't want to be ignorant. She may end up being his lifeline or best friend. Any thought?  |
