Found condom in dd bedroom - what to say to her about it

[SisterVanHelsing]

NC for this etc.

Dd is 14 (still 6 months to go till 15th birthday). Needed to get something she'd borrowed out of her room, moved a pile of coats out of the way and found a condom, still in the wrapper, but with a tiny tear at the top.

Now, I honestly don't think she's had sex. She has no boyfriend, to my knowledge, and barely has time for one anyway as she has full-on weekend and after-school activities and a large social circle. She is, however, a mass of raging hormones and has about 15 intense crushes on various people, both real and fictional/celebs.

The brand of condom is the same as DH and I use, so I think she may just have snaffled one from our room and kept it 'just in case'.

Any advice on how to approach this when she gets home from school in about half an hour? I don't want to scare (or cringe) her into feeling I'm not approachable when it comes to relationships and sex, but I really don't want her to have sex at this stage!

Someone .. at DD2's school had a parent who worked at some medical wholesalers and they were throwing out some old pregnacny test kits and out of date condoms.

So they decied to hand them around among their mates at school the jolly jape was to leave them in their rooms so the parents would find them and be shocked!

And they were!, it simmered down after around a week most saw the funny side of it !..

I found one in my dd room took a photo of It and sent It to her. She said a group of them found a box in the park took one each and where going to fill as water balloons they are 15 16. I said that's a bit immature for your age and told her to come to me if she was at that stage off a relationship but she said shes not yet.
