Underage sex now ‘normal part of growing up’ in Britain

RAEL’S COMMENT:
With mutual consent, as soon as teenagers reach puberty (which is different for each individual), and when it is consensual, there should be no limit of age. It’s freedom and without religious taboos, it’s the natural order, and yes “part of natural growing up”; and with adequate sex education and contraception, it poses no risks and makes happier adults. 90% of our female ancestors were pregnant between 12 and 15 before the Judeo-Christian taboos created age limitations based on nothing but prejudices and control of women.

 

Children are increasingly at risk of being sexually abused because underage sex has become “a normal part of growing up” in the UK, a new report argues.

The Family Education Trust says health and social agencies are increasingly taking it for granted that children under the age of 16, Britain’s legal age of consent, are engaging in sexual activities.

The report said the “expectation” of underage sex is leaving children vulnerable to abuse and exploitation, as health and social workers fail to ask individuals about their partners.

“Relaxed attitudes towards underage sex has led to what can only be described as a paralysis in child protection agencies as far apart as Rochdale in the north, Torbay in the south, Thurrock in the east and Liverpool in the west,” said Norman Wells, who is the director of the trust and author of the report, the Daily Mail reports.

Speaking on TalkRadio, Wells said the confidential provision of contraception to under-16s is “giving young people the impression that it is ok to engage in underage sex.”

He said he hoped the report would help policymakers and professionals weigh the evidence and engage in a national debate on underage sex.

The research follows reports that young girls are being exploited and groomed by older men after being failed by police and social services.

It looked into seven serious case reviews, including alleged abuse in Bristol, Oxfordshire, and Rotherham, that took place over the past four years.

It found a common tendency of social and health agencies to refrain from asking young people about underage sex for fear of sounding judgmental, meaning any signs of abuse inevitably go undisclosed.

The report claimed, in the case of Rochdale, underage sex went “unchallenged” and “many young people were placed at risk of sexual exploitation” because reducing the number of teenage pregnancies was the main priority for agencies.

In one case, no action was taken after a 14-year-old girl informed a crisis intervention team that a 21-year-old man had made her pregnant.

“Even though the normalization of underage sex has been identified repeatedly in the serious case reviews as a reason for the complacency of child protection agencies, there is no indication of a willingness to address these underlying issues either at the local or the national level,” Wells said.

Professor David Paton of Nottingham University Business School called the 152-page report “utterly damning,” while warning against promoting a culture of “confidentiality.”

“A clear picture emerges of a culture in which underage sexual activity has come to be viewed as a normal part of growing up and seen as relatively harmless as long as it is consensual,” Paton was reported saying in the Daily Mail.

“An unhealthy emphasis on confidentiality has been used too often as an excuse to exclude parents who might have been in a position to help stop the abuse at an earlier stage,” he added.

The report calls for new guidelines giving “explicit recognition to the role of parents,” as well as a review of the Crown Prosecution Service guidance so that “due rigour is restored to the law on the age of consent.”
