I agree, but how many kids 16 or younger know what meaningful is? yes, i'm sure im offending you all by saying that, but seriously? When I was 16 I was having arguments with a black kid who thought that the holocaust was about hitler killing black people.
well meaningful can be defined in so many ways. Only the person themself can interpret that. I can't really provide an exact definition of it.
But I believe the kid will know when they are in a meaningful relationship no matter how mature or immature they are. They will know.
And in the later years.. when they look back to when they first lost their virginity, they're not filled with regret, because the person they lost it to meant a lot to them. I guess that's how they should know. IDK. D:
