13 Ways to Spend Time with Your Teenage Daughter

The older my daughter gets the more it's sinking in that I don't have much time left to spend with her! She's turning 16 in a couple of months, and I know I won't be seeing her much after she gets her driver's license.

It's hard to find things to do with your teenage daughter. You might be busy, they might have better things to do...I encourage you not to let this time slip away from you. Our interests may be very different from theirs, but there's always things you can do to bridge the gap.

If you have more than one daughter, then make sure they each get their special time alone with you. I have found that these activities are also great for bonding with teens you want to reach out to and build relationships with, like a step-daughter.

I've done all of the following activities with my daughter and/or step-daughter and haven't regretted a moment. Someday I will be able to look back and appreciate the moments we shared, and I hope they will too.

1. Take your dog(s) on a walk together.

2. Cook dinner together, letting her choose the menu and help shop for the ingredients.

3. Pick her up from school and take her out to lunch, even if she misses part of a class.

4. Drive to the closest big city for the night, stay in a hotel, and spend all the next day shopping and sightseeing, taking time to stop for lunch at an outdoor cafe.

5. Read the same book together and talk about it when you're done reading it.

6. Do a scriptural book study together.

7. Get up early on a Saturday morning, go get coffee, and spend the morning going to yard sales or looking through thrift shops or dollar stores.

8. Make cookies together to give to a friend.

9. Make holiday gifts together to give to friends and family. Visit http://www.crafty-moms.com for easy craft ideas.

10. Go with your daughter to the concert of her choice.

11. Buy her the materials to start a high school scrapbook. Work on your scrapbooks while she works on hers.

12. Join a local fitness club and work out together. My daughter and I joined a local women's gym that is very inexpensive (/month for both of us). We get up at 5:00 a.m. three days a week to go exercise before she goes to school and I go to work.

13. Go to the local video store and rent a couple of "chick flicks" to enjoy together in the comfort of your home. Kick the men out of the house and lounge around in your pajamas.

Educators have argued that by supplying contraceptives to schools could encourage sexual activities. Psychologists claim that teenage years is a period of emotional stress, can result to rapid psychological and physiological changes. Number of babies in the orphanage is believed to be the result of teenage pregnancy. According to leading psychologist, a male teenager thinks about sex 125 times a day. Through the years, sexual activities among teenagers have increased. A teenage mother physically and emotionally is not ready for pregnancy; their babies are more prone to complications. Sexually transmitted diseases coexist with teenage pregnancy, which can be a danger to the baby. Despite active sexual activity, most teenagers still lack the proper knowledge about sexuality.

In order to solve teenage pregnancy, they often turn to adoption for their babies or worst, abortion.

Sexually transmitted diseases are responsible for birth defects; syphilis and gonorrhea can cause blindness to the newborn. AIDS is a longtime concern when it comes to childbirth. There are studies that indicates what can be transmitted through blood can be transmitted through sex. If a mother is suffering from AIDS, there is a great possibility that the baby will acquire the disease. Teenage mothers activities like smoking while in gestation or exposing herself to environmental contaminants could lead to serious medical problem to the baby.

In reality, teenage mothers lack responsibility. So her family must support her during pregnancy, the physical and emotional stress is no joke. Many deaths among babies are a result of mishandled pregnancy. Some cases, the delivery of the baby turn out all right, but it is in the nurturing part where most teenage mothers commit fatal mistakes. Taking care of a baby will require both parents effort, but there are teenagers that are not ready for the nurturing responsibilities.

Schools and local government officials are doubling their efforts to educate students about teenage pregnancy. High schools are putting much emphasis in sex education. If a teenager cannot be good, he or she should be careful instead.
