Okay, so I took my eldest son to the doctor today for a physical. What I thought would be a normal "check-up" so to speak, ended in my son exclaiming "don't EVER make me do that again!". I could completely understand why he was saying it too!
We went in and he had a finger prick -the normal ya know doctor stuff....then it got inappropriate (in my opinion). I mean, I'm one of those mom's that discusses the "personal" things with my child when I feel it's right. We've talked about the "Birds and the Bees" (so to speak) and about how God makes our bodies. But this doctor was talking about REALLY personal stuff and then treating me as if I didn't know what I was talking about-"Mom-make sure you tell him about.......".
There are things that I believe only a parent should discuss with their child-I know a doctor has to make sure that everything is good with the kid and their is no abuse and all-but some things should be handled by the parent in their belief system.
The "world" sees things in a different light-don't get me wrong-some parents don't discuss anything and then their kid ends up pregnant/diseases,etc! I was pregnant at 17 and I definetely don't want any of my kids having that happen. I pray they will be virgin's when they get married-I didn't have that and I regret it.
I want my son(s) to be able to stand before his bride and be able to say that they can give themselves completely to that one person and that person be able to do the same. That's what I am standing believing for.
So, I'm on my soapbox and I am a mother that stands for abstinence until marriage and that God is the creator of everything....including our bodies. You are entitled to your opinion also.
