Teens and Unfulfilled Sexual Desires

Why has God given teens such strong a sexual drive and no healthy, acceptable way to satisfy it? This just doesn’t seem fair. In Bible times people got married at a younger age. As a result, it was normal to have sex and start raising kids before you reached the age of 20. These days, …
