I think saying that 10 percent of 12 year old girls are mature enough to make this kind of decision is reaaaaally stretching it. I don't think it's even close to that. We're talking what? 5th? 6th grade? No way on earth. Sure kids might find it interesting or whatever, but they don't have any common sense regarding how the power of sex should be used. Or what is appropriate.
She's still 4 years from being able to drive a car. You're telling me she's mature enough to make this decision? She may think she is, but she's not. Anyone who has lived past 12 years old could tell you that. Unless the rest of you guys all reached some sense of enlightenment that passed me by in middle school.
