Lewis, please don't make light of what you don't understand. It is very common for high school girls to respond to the death of a classmate by increasing sexual activity in a, usually, subconscious desire to produce a life to replace the one that was lost. Other teens respond by trying to make the pain disappear by increased drinking or substance abuse. Kids are hurting and they will be looking for any activity that stops the pain even for a little while. Capt. Lewis, please don’t make light of what you don’t understand.
