On advice to teenagers

As I review the Sunday School lesson for tomorrow, my thoughts (as they often do) go back to my years attending McIntire Methodist Church.   (United wasn't added until 1968)   

When I left to join the Navy I was a member of a class that must have been for teenagers.  The class was taught by my very conservative aunt, the mother of nine, two or three attending this class. The literature the class was studying must have been on teen romance and dating.  I just remember my aunt ending the discussion with these words:

"It's all right for a couple to hold hands when they become engaged."  What more advice on sex does a teenager need?
