But then that's your job, isn't it - to protect her? But not protect her too much...and nobody can really tell you how to do it. No user's manual.
I decided in my teens I didn't want to be a parent. Being the oldest of four latchkey kids convinced me of that, and I don't regret it. I would have been utterly clueless, so my hat's off to you for having the courage to raise children, esp a daughter in this day and age. Sex is everywhere, we're saturated in it in ways that would have been unimaginable to me growing up even in the '70's and '80's.
