‘What Little House on the Prairie taught me about a godly attitude to sex and marriage’

’Raising a teen in these times seems almost impossible, but Laura Ingalls gives me a model of what true joy and contentment can look like,’ says Kate Orson.

I didn’t grow up in a Christian home and like many adolescents my teens years were a time of rebellion. I lost my virginity a few months before I turned 16 and I distinctively remember thinking that it was proving a point that the age of consent was arbitrary and I could decide based on my own feelings. How little I knew back then!
