Miley Cyrus has a new BF. He's 20, she's about to turn 16. I'm a dad of a daughter who adores Miley and her on-screen alter ego of Hanna Montana and I really don't want to be in the position of having to explain another Hollywood unplanned pregnancy. I know others worry too.
Even though Miley is wearing a purity ring, indicating a vow of chasity, there are other rumors that indicate that she is on the pill. I hope Miley is on the pill if she continues to date the 20-year-old, because experience proves that kind of relationship--where the older person has so much power and influence--results in sex.
Moreover, research shows that when teen girls have sex at a young age with much older partners, the chances are greater that their first sexual experiences are involuntary or unwanted and that they will become pregnant.
But what really gets my back up is that Miley's dad, Billy Ray, supports the relationship.
Did that mullet hurt his head? What do you think?

Miley Cyrus Wears a Purity Ring? 
My daughter is 19yo now, but I would have not allowed her to date a 20yo when she was 16. That's what, a sophomore in high school? What adult wants to date a high school kid. Really?
This is so inappropriate. No way would I allow my teenage daughter or son to date someone that much older. And if my 20-year-old son wanted to date a 15 or 16-year-old girl, I would try to get him some professional help!
