Juvenile deliquency increases early sexual activity The study also found the youths' involvement in delinquent acts drastically increases the chances of early sexual activity.
Lohman says she also has data collected in 2006 from the same subjects, who were between 16 and 20 by that time.
They found that additional maternal education -- beyond a high school level -- was found to inhibit some of that activity.
You have to start before those young kids -- 10 or even younger -- start becoming sexually active.
