      Same if you have teenager. And they want a sleep over with some they realy like. You could denail them and punshiment. Than they whould do it outside somewhere without protections. Or give them condoms, tell them some tips and meet with the other girl/guy. Now you know who it is, they do it safe. And its in a safe place.

      An old saying two of my old engine builder buddies told about making cars faster and engines more power was......."Cubic inches or cubic dollars". These were the two options for faster cars. Of course there are some amazing race mechanics and engine builders that are more high tech and more knowledgeable about making cars run faster,but all the mechanics and other engine builders for many miles around came to these two old buddies both for wisdom&advice as well as to have all the work they weren't capable of doing themselves get done by my buddies.
      One passed away several years ago now and the other quit building engines and went to work as a journeyman electrician. He still builds his own Harleys from scratch piece by piece and part by part to create the specific bike he wants. He even builds his own engines for his Harleys.
      They're both still sorely missed today as engine builders and wise old mechanical geniuses. I miss their talents myself.
