Dear Ann Landers,
30. You would not believe how aggressive those girls are. One drives over in her own convertible and offers to help him with his homework. I've heard him tell her that he really doesn't need any help, but she hangs around anyway. She wears spandex tops and short shorts with absolutely no underwear. A few weeks ago, my husband had a talk-not the first-with Johnny about sex. Johnny is not sexually active yet but says he doesn't know how much longer he can hold out. He claims the girls carry condoms and put so much pressure on the guys that they almost feel they have to give in. One girl told him that any guy who has not had sex by the time he's 17 must be gay. So please, Ann, stop worrying about the girls. These are the '90s. Direct your concern to the guys who are virtually being hit over the head and dragged into the back seat. -Southern California Mom

Dear California Mom,
Thanks for the update. Yours is not the first letter conveying this message, but it's the most graphic. Any other mothers of teenage boys want to comment?

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
