I watched this movie last night at the Hallmark Channel. It's about teenage sex. In the film, a bunch of fourteen year-old kids have been diagnosed with syphillis, a sexually transmitted disease. Some of them have had sex with not one, not two, but almost twenty sex partners.I've always had an open mind about teenage sex. I knew it was wrong and immoral, but I was never against it. I've always believed that because this is a stage wherein kids our age begin to have raging hormones and are not yet fully responsible to handle certain things, sex is hard to control. And like they always say, iba na ang panahon ngayon. Kids are more liberated and "wild".But this movie opened my eyes to different realities.
1. I learned that it is best to wait for the right time before having sex for it may bring many dangers that may ruin our lives forever.
2. I also learned that I should stick to the values my family and my schools have been teaching me. The "right time" is when we are married. The "right partner" is the person we love.
3. Hindi nagbabago ang panahon. Each person just has his or her own values.
Like what I said earlier, teenage sex is still hard to control. There are many factors that influence and play with the minds of teenagers --- TV shows, their environment, song lyrics. This is why I believe that kids should be guided by their parents and the school until he is mature enough to know his responsibilities and limitations. Sad to say though, that not everyone has the privelege to be raised up properly. That's why I am lucky.
Again, we just all have to wait for the right time. And when that right time comes, I'm sure it'll be beautiful and much more exciting. ;)You may catch the movie again at the Hallmark Channel.
