Innocence Charts

Through the years as a girl gets older her innocence chart fades and the numbers go down. You see when she's first born it's at 100. Than by 2 when she takes her first step it goes down about 5 points. When she's 5 and starts demanding cookies and lollipops her innocence chart goes down about 20 points . When she's 9 and you start buying her baby dolls that come with strollers and fake baby bottles. The kind the train the little girl to grow to be a mommy... her innocence chart takes a really deep plunge by almost 40. When the girl is 12 and finally experiencing womanhood and you have to tell her about the birds and the bees and even though she's young warn her about pregancy her innocence goes down 15. Now during her teenage years her score goes down with each passing day. With each boy friend and exploration of the body. WIth each kiss innocence is fading further. So I'd say between 13 and 14 it goes down an extra ten. Now all we have left is 10 points and the worst innocence destroyer is highschool. Statstics show that by 17 almost 70% percent of girls have had sex. So by 17 either your waiting and antiicipating or their's no points left to fade and we all know what that means. Once innocence fades you began to develop adults problems... lets just hope the girls are ready for this next chart.
