The more active someone is sexually, the more likely he could have picked up an STD.
Why is privacy more important than the health of people's children in here?
Bizarre.
Its none of the parents' business. It IS a potential sexual partner's business. Bizarre that you think my mother needed to know how many women my then boyfriend/now husband slept with before we started dating.
REALLY bizarre. Not to mention weird, creepy, over the top and flat out nasty.
So when are they suppose to have bareback sex and pop out a kid at 16 so he can start working manual labor or at a gas station and paying child support?
Yeah because that's the only other possible and logical conclusion.

While your view is common, it’s certainly not universal. Lots of parents think that the sexual activity of their minor children is their business. The extent to which that is normal will vary by region, but it’s not an extreme outlier anywhere in the US. Written applications are not normal anywhere.
Any suggestions on how to start the conversation without flipping out ?
Well, first of all, don't go in there talking about lawsuits. What, exactly, did your friend who suggested threatening a lawsuit believe that you would sue them for??
Also, why are you angry that they have your private phone number? They aren't even answering the calls you are making. I doubt they will be abusing your phone number.
While I absolutely believe this was out of line, this story is very bizarre, and I still think the questionnaire was every bit the daughter's idea.

I understand other people think differently. I still think its weird and creepy. Just like I find something like arranged marriages weird and creepy. I get people do it. I don't agree with it at all.
i purposely held off from clicking on this thread listed in the active threads from around the forum list for about a week because i thought the discussion would be for a mobile app like tinder or grinder where parents rank/date their children (yikes !).
now after reading the op: its weird. i would disregard the application.
find out from the son if he really likes this girl because theres already some big challenges ahead; if she is worth it then the two families should get together to discuss their concerns over a more normal setting (bar-bq, tea, dinner, ...)
i think your son is smart for showing it to you; it's illegal for minors to sign contracts.
i feel bad posting this but keep the contract and note (file it away) in case its needed down the road as evidence in a trial.

Reason: bit about evidence in a trial
I could see reporting the fact that the parents asked for your son's school email address, assuming that this is information that is not supposed to be shared. Otherwise, though, it doesn't really involve the school.
i think she said it was hand delivered in school.
