Teenagers feel under increased pressure to have sex during the festive period, a survey has found.
A poll of more than 1,000 13 to 17-year-olds found more than a third (34%) were more likely to have sex over Christmas, while more than two-thirds (68%) were more likely to drink alcohol.
A quarter (25%) said they felt under increased pressure to have sex at this time of year.
Despite the statistics, two thirds of parents still believe sex is something that other people's children have.
The survey was commissioned as part of the Time to Talk campaign, which encourages parents to talk to their children about such issues.
