Shouldn't teenagers (age 16 and above) have a legal right to have sex at home?

Some school districts distribute condoms. Shouldn't teenagers have a legal right to use those condoms at home?

in some US states they can have consensual sex at 16 - in others 18

in the UK I think it is 16

at home? they still live under their parent(s) roof so - their rules.
@Pretzel What I'm saying is that states recognize that kids have certain legal rights -- to food, to clothing, to education. Shouldn't states recognize that teens also have a basic human right to have sex and that parents should be required to allow them to have sex in their homes?

@FrogManSometimesLooksBothWays the consequences of sex are life-altering.

I have no problem with 18 as the legal age.although prosecuting an 18 year old for having sex with a 17 year old seems pointless (and most states have exceptions for "romeo and juliet" situations - and even call them that)
and when it comes to sex in my house - the state can't tell me when my kids will have sex in my house - I raise my kids not the almighty state.

@Pretzel good call
@Pretzel Some school districts distribute condoms to kids. Those school districts are enabling sex. Kids like to say, "It's just fucking." And they're right. [i] It's no big deal.[/i] Get over it. Sexual inhibition leads to neurosis. You want your kids to be neurotic?

@FrogManSometimesLooksBothWays I don't want them to be parents.
