Mmmm...
I think the (dubious) perceived wisdom is that if children understand that it can be enjoyable (with the right person) they are more likely to wait until they DO find the right person.
I think that smacks of people using hindsight into their own situations and expecting young people to learn from others' mistakes.
Most people learn from their own mistakes don't they? Rather than someone else's? Definitely a case of don't do as I did, do as I tell you I wish I'd done!!
