    • I was very disappointed in ABC Family when I watched Secret Life of an American Teenager on 1/11 with my 14 year old daughter. There was not one scene in the whole program that did not have to deal wit sex in some manner. Very disappointing for a primetime show geared toward teenagers. What are you trying to teach our children? Pre-mariatal sex is okay? Premarital sex is okay if you use protection? Premarital sex is okay and it is okay to cheat on your boyfriend/girlfriend? Masturbation is not a private matter and okay to speak of openly? Teenagers should know about their parents sexual encounters and be intimately invovled in their parents personal marital lives? I hope other parents rethink allowing their young teenagers watch this show and I hope ABC Family rethinks the plot as well!
