Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (2:44)

Of parents and they're not necessarily related.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (2:46)

Exactly. Okay. And here are some of the results. And I'll give the phone number out. 404-741-1005. And I'll also give this warning that normally we save this kind of stuff till after 8:30, but it has to do with teens. And that's why we're talking about it now, because generally teens get into school about 7:15, 7:30 or so. All right, so according to this study, that again asked a whole bunch of kids, then asked parents separate rooms, have you ever kissed somebody? The students said 96% of them, almost 100%, 96% of these teens said yes.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (3:19)

Did they really get the teens all in a room or did they just go to their MySpace profiles and look at those really long obnoxious surveys that says you can have a survey just like this.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (3:30)

Click here.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (3:30)

And then there's like 42.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (3:32)

Have you ever gone skinny dipping?

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (3:35)

Have you ever smoked a cigarette?

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (3:37)

How old are the teens on the study?

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (3:39)

Just says teens.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (3:40)

Okay.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (3:40)

So in their 20s.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (3:42)

So it doesn't give a real average.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (3:43)

13 to 18.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (3:44)

13 to 18. Okay.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (3:46)

Okay.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (3:47)

Have you ever kissed somebody? The students, 96% of them said, of course we have kissed somebody. 96%, the parents think this about their own kids. That's 74%. 74. So three out of four, which to me isn't really that big a discrepancy.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (4:00)

And I, and I, when I saw this, I, my thought was, I said this off air that I think that I'm just surprised at the parents. Like my mom is 76 years old. I was born a little later than most people and in their parents life and she's 76, so I expect her to. Oh, well, you know, I'm. You don't kiss somebody until you're. Whatever. Back in my day when I walked to school both ways, but, but I think that the younger parents who are like the baby boomer generation, I'm surprised that they would be so naive, you would think they would be a little more. But I guess when it comes to your child, you still don't want to know what's going on.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (4:33)

I would tell you what, because of the way that I kind of ran around in high school and stuff like that, I think my answer, I think my attitude towards my son when he grows up is going to be more paranoid than less naive. Does that make sense? Like, I think he's probably going to be into more things than he might really be, based on what I did in high school.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (4:52)

I just know that. Yeah. If somebody said, is your. Has your teenager kissed anybody? Yeah.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (4:57)

Yeah.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (4:57)

I mean, they probably kissed somebody before they became a teenager.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (5:00)

Well, we haven't even scratched the surface on this thing. Have you gone on a date? 93% of the students said, yeah, we've gone on a date. It's almost 100%. Only 68% of the parents think their kids have gone out on a date. So now we're starting to see a widening gap here.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (5:12)

Maybe they need that Birch show dictionary and just start defining these things.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (5:17)

You ever French kissed? 84% of the teenagers said, yup, we've swapped spit before. The parents said 43%. No.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (5:28)

That is so dumb.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (5:29)

You got to cut that in half. This. And there's no way my kid would have her tongue in the mouth of another boy. No way.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (5:35)

Ew.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (5:36)

That's.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (5:36)

That's just gross.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (5:37)

Not my kid. Yep, your kid, Jen was the first.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (5:41)

What? How old were you when you first French kissed? Probably like 13 or 14. Yeah, that's the same with me. Is it 13 or 14? Come on.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (5:52)

There's somebody right now. There's a parent driving in that just heard you say that. That is shocked. That is like you were 13.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (5:58)

Yes.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (5:58)

When you had your first tongue kiss. They just about drove off the side of the road.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (6:02)

Yeah. Don Jr 14. I remember we touched braces. Oh, say Don Johnson. Swear his name and Mr. Mom. That was the name of the movie. And he choked me. Yeah, I mean, Michael Keaton turns anybody.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (6:15)

It'll get you more frisky than Michael Keaton doing housework.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (6:17)

I remember Jessica made out during that movie he made with the videotape for his son when he was dying.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (6:23)

Oh, dude, that one is brutal. My life can't even joke about that.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (6:28)

That's the first time I went up a girl's shirt during that movie.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (6:33)

Oh, my. Oh, my God.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (6:35)

Just get out.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (6:37)

We've got three more hours.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (6:42)

A hickey? Have you received or given a hickey? 73% of the teens said yes, either given or gotten a hickey. The parents said, not my kid. They would never walk around with one of those hickeys. 28% of the parents.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (6:59)

I just. I had this thought, you know, we have this whole bank of things for Birchill Bets. I think the. The next loser of a Birch show bet has to receive a hickey. In a prominent place on their neck. As an adult, I love that.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (7:14)

And then all the remedies were the spoon in the freezer and you can.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (7:19)

Get the hickey bite from your significant other. But you have to have it like for however long it lasts as an adult. And you have to get like three of them. Right?

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (7:30)

You'll never feel more trashy than when you walk into the office with a hickey. The first hickey that I ever had was self inflicted. I was so posing in like the seventh grade and wanted to come into school with a hickey. I wasn't even dating a girl at the time. And we had this little snake charming kit where I lived in San Diego that, you know if you get bit by a snake, you're supposed to suck the poison out. So it's like a little mini plunger that if you're by yourself and you get bit by a snake, you kind of attach it to your arm and it sucks the poison out. I put the thing all over my neck.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (8:03)

That is hilarious.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (8:04)

And I walk inside my life. Yeah, who's the man? Who is the man?

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (8:08)

What he didn't notice? I'm the man is the plunger had like two little dots where the fangs were. We're just looking at him going, oh my God, did you get attacked by a snake in your neck? Morning.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (8:19)

Q100. Hello. We haven't even scratched the surface seriously, on this, on this survey yet. Is it Nika? Nika, Nika, what's going on?

Caller/Guest (8:28)

Not so much. What's up?

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (8:29)

You tell us. You called. What's up?

Caller/Guest (8:32)

Well, I was calling to say that I'm not one of the parents who are naive to the situation. I do have a 19, 17 and 13 year old as nine. But I am very close with my boys. And one of my sons, we're listening and he's like, God, those parents are really naive because I talk, we talk about condoms and sex and my boys are active and I've gone to purchase their condoms. I know what size they need. I'm very strict. It's like American Express card jumping home without it type thing.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (9:03)

Listen to this. Nika, check this out. Because you're talking about contraceptives and stuff like that. One of the questions on the survey is, have you ever purchased contraceptives? 34% of the teens said yes. Yes, we have. The parents think their own teen. Only 7%.

Caller/Guest (9:22)

Oh my God, how naive. I'm sorry. I prefer to know what's going on in my son's life than not to know what's going on in their lives.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (9:30)

Good for you. Because if he's answering honestly to you, then I think that makes you pretty rare. Pretty rare. Especially when you look at the rest of the survey.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (9:38)

All I hear in my head is her sentence. I know what size they are and it's getting louder and louder and I.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (9:43)

Can'T get out loud.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (9:44)

But it's realistic.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (9:45)

No, it's not.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (9:46)

It is realistic.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (9:47)

I mean, parents should know that.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (9:49)

But teenagers won't talk to their parents because they're afraid they're going to get in trouble for it. So instead they end up in like real life trouble, getting, you know, diseases or, you know, teen pregnancy or you name it. Because they're too afraid to talk to their parents because they're afraid they're going to get grounded. But instead the alternative is, you know, the other things that are happening. And I think parents think that if you like, some parents probably heard that call and thought, well, it's because she's talking to them and because she's buying the condoms for them is why they're active. When I think parents are naive to think it's going to happen anyway. It's going to happen anyway. So they protect your kid or you don't.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (10:25)

That's a tough decision to make as a parent, but I think I'd rather go through the uncomfortableness of knowing the size of my son's condom than the uncomfortableness of him coming home and telling me that he got a girl pregnant. That's for sure.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (10:37)

Or has a sexually transmitted disease I'll never get rid of.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (10:41)

Told someone you loved him or her? 68% of the teens. That even seems low to me because when you're a teenager, you love that.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (10:48)

Oh my God. You were just. I'll never live without. We will be together forever.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (10:53)

And when. I mean forever, I mean like three weeks.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (10:54)

What age is it when a girl writes on her notebook that her first name and the guy's last name.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (11:00)

Fourth grade.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (11:00)

That early.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (11:02)

It's pretty early.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (11:03)

Told someone that you loved him or her. 68% of the teens said, yeah, of course we have. 32% of the parents said, yeah, I'm sure my kid has watched an X rated movie. The teens said 65% of them have said, yes, we watched an X rated movie. The parents, 25% not even on the same planet.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (11:24)

Such a. From when I was growing up, that's such a boy thing. I think boys are introduced to pornography so early. Agreed. You know, like, But I did. I watched one as a teenager too. I've seen one.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (11:36)

So I was like, some like old, old, old school. I don't even know where Paul got his hands on it, but it was like an old 1968 porn where there was just a. I even remember back then thinking that someone hasn't landscaped in a while. Someone needs to do some topiary.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (11:51)

I was actually in one when I was a teen.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (11:54)

Shut up.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (11:56)

Two hours and 58 minutes.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (12:00)

Take the personal day. Just go. Hey, Lori.

Caller/Guest (12:04)

Hi.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (12:05)

Hi. How old are you? I'm good. How old are you?

Caller/Guest (12:09)

17.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (12:09)

Okay, so you're coming from the teens angle on this.

Caller/Guest (12:12)

Yeah. I think parents can be very naive just because they're. They really don't know. Want to know what their children are doing. I mean, I've had. I'm one of the few virgins in my group of friends, and it's just. It's not as a big of it as much of a deal as it used to be. Like, it used to be this special thing, but kids today, it's not as important and a special. It's kind of like, oh, it's not a big deal. And they don't think about the consequences about doing that at such a young age. So I think parents think because it was such a. They think it's so special and has so much meaning that they think that their kids take that idea like they did.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (12:59)

See, I think it's naive to think your parents had. I mean, that all parents, you know, thought that it was something to wait on too. Like, I think that every teenage group has the. It's the idea that the parents think that everybody's so innocent, quote, unquote. When. I mean, not. Every. Not every parent was innocent when they were that age. Right now, are most of your friends that are sexually active, are they using protection?

Caller/Guest (13:23)

They have. I don't know if I can say this on air. Not. Not all of them. Like, in certain cases, yes, but not 100% of the time where. I mean, I've had a couple of my friends had. Had pregnancy scares because they thought they could get away with not using it that one time, right?

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (13:47)

Yeah.

Caller/Guest (13:47)

And it's always that one time.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (13:50)

Oh, well, you know what? It's okay. I mean, the odds.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (13:53)

The odds of when you're pregnant can't happen to me. Of course, some more from this, and it's going to get a little bit more graphic here. All right. So I just want to warn you that if you're driving around, you have kids in the. You don't want to hear about this kind of stuff. We'll check us out in a couple of minutes. Received oral. All right. Teens say 61% have received. Their parents say 10%.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (14:17)

Totally different discrepancy there.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (14:19)

A little bit of a discrepancy there. Performed rather than received. The teens 51% said yes. We have parents thinking this about their own teen. Remember, this is performed 1%.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (14:37)

Really?

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (14:38)

My kid would never do that. Never, never, never.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (14:42)

Well, we've talked to teenagers to say that's a lot more common and isn't seen as big of a deal as even one generation ago saw it.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (14:50)

Don, good morning. You're on Q100.

Caller/Guest (14:53)

Good morning.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (14:53)

Aye. Hey.

Caller/Guest (14:55)

I have a 16 year old and when she was 15, actually is when she asked me if she could get on birth control pills. And I kind of lied to her to get the truth out of her because I know she is. She wouldn't tell me anything. I'm a very nosy mom. But I told her that there were two types of birth control pills. There was one that would clear up acne and then there was one that actually would stop you from getting pregnant. And that I had to know which one if she was active or not to get her the right pill. And she, she told me that she was active. And that's how I found out.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (15:26)

Look at you, smart mom. This is the 16 year old version of what I did to Hayden and the dog.

Caller/Guest (15:34)

That wasn't. That was minor compared to the phone call I got from her school though later on I got. I mean, this was after she was on the field for a while and she was still dating. She's still dating the same guy. They've been together two years. But I got a phone call from the school. They said that they had taken up her boyfriend's cell phone and that they needed us to come up there because they had taken pictures with the cell phone during. And I didn't want to see them, but my or her father saw them and he said they were worse than any Hustler book, anything that you've ever seen. He said they were everything.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (16:09)

They were worse. Her father saw her sex pictures.

Caller/Guest (16:13)

Not only her father, but apparently several of the teachers in the school.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (16:17)

I can't think of a worse nightmare as a parent.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (16:19)

I can't.

Caller/Guest (16:20)

It was terrible, but I felt bad. I mean, I know what she did was wrong and what he did was wrong and it just broke her dad in my heart. But I would hate to, you know, know, being at her age, that my teacher saw that too.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (16:33)

Oh, for sure.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (16:33)

Yeah. I was gonna say Your worst nightmare as a teenager. Is that right?

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (16:36)

I don't know. Maybe. I mean, if you had to choose your parents to see it or one of the teachers to see it, your dad to see it.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (16:42)

I'd rather have teachers than my dad, for sure. But even though it broke their heart, you know, she knew that she was active and she knew she was dating this guy. And not that it made it any easier, but I just wonder if they had no idea. They thought everything was fine, and then they saw those pictures.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (16:59)

It has to be a little less shocking, because she knew that her child was having sex, that she didn't know that at all. And then the pictures come in if you're the dad. Okay. Yep. I don't know. I just moved to some Bahamian island. It's not even inhabited. I got me a rowboat and one fishing pole. Hey, Kelly. Good morning.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (17:16)

You're on Survivor. Just trying to outlast.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (17:19)

Kelly is 13 years old. What's going on, Kelly?

Caller/Guest (17:22)

Nothing much. Getting ready for school.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (17:23)

Thank you for calling. What's up?

Caller/Guest (17:25)

Well, I just want to say that I think there's a lot of pressure because I've had people in my school do something like that, and I'm only 13. I'm only in eighth grade, and I guess, like, she's not really my friend, but I guess you could say she's my acquaintance. And I know that she had pressure from about five guys and eventually did it, but that eventually caused her so much, like, emotion that she had to drop out of school for about four months in homeschool.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (17:55)

Look, I'm not. I'm not gonna sit here as an older guy and say, you know what? You can make your own decisions. You have the choice to say no. Just say no. That kind of social pressure at that age, I understand it's so intense, and it really takes a strong kid to be able to stand up to that and say, I just can't do this.

Caller/Guest (18:11)

Yeah.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (18:12)

So, like, you can't. I mean, you can't really come down on it. I get it.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (18:15)

Let me ask you a question. Do you think that the pressure would have been less intense had your acquaintance had an open conversation with her parents?

Caller/Guest (18:24)

Probably her mom, actually. She said that as soon as she came home, she just spilled out to her mom. And that's the first thing she didn't tell the school. She told her mom before her mom actually told the school. And the person that she gave pleasure to what is in jail right now or he's in juvie. But there's other Reasons he's in it.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (18:47)

Okay.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (18:47)

How old was he?

Caller/Guest (18:48)

He's 13.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (18:50)

13. Where did this happen?

Caller/Guest (18:52)

This happened last year, probably second quarter, so around December.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (18:57)

Where did it happen? Did it happen at school? Yeah, it happened at school.

Caller/Guest (19:00)

Yeah.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (19:01)

Are there any adoption agencies that specialize like in young adults? Like I'd like to, could I adopt like a 23 year old somebody just out of college, somebody. Yeah, somebody could just take care of me in my older years. But I don't really have to deal.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (19:14)

With, well, you want to have the child, then just give it away and then take it, take it back at 17, right? Yeah.

Radio Co-host (likely male, Don) (19:18)

Well, yeah, if I could have a kid up until age like 6, then ship it off to Malawi, see if Madonna make a trade, see if Madonna can take it for a while, then pick it back up right after college.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (19:29)

There's so many more elements of this survey that I want to get into on Monday morning. We just scratched the surface. But the most shocking one, at least today were the performing and receiving ones. 51% of the teens said yes, they have performed going down to Cancun. And only 1% of the parents think that about their kids. Man, this I'm not going to preach because I don't have a kid that's a teen yet. But it sure seems to me like when Hayden's that age, it's just all about talking about it and talking about and getting through those ugly, ugly conversations.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (20:01)

Well, you know, and I don't have any children, but everyone he, you know, that you brought up. I've thought about when I was a teenager, what I did and parents shouldn't be so naive because look back at what you did.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (20:11)

Right.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (20:13)

And I think that it's just so important for teenagers to know they're not going to get in trouble for talking to you about it because that's why they don't talk to you about it. Right.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (20:21)

I'm Hannah Berner and I'm also thinking about underwear, but I prefer full coverage. I like to call them my granny panties.

Commercial Narrator (21:39)

Actually, I never think about underwear. That's the magic of Tommy John. Same.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (21:44)

They're so light and so comfy.

Commercial Narrator (21:46)

And if it's not comfortable, I'm not wearing it.

Radio Co-host (likely female, Jen) (21:48)

And the bras?

Commercial Narrator (21:49)

Soft, supportive and actually breathable.

Radio Host (likely male, lead) (21:51)

Yes. Lord knows the girls need to breathe. Also, I need my PJs to breathe and be buttery, soft and stretchy enough for my dramatic tossing and turning at night.
