Should a parent condone under-age sex?

Graham Stewart takes your calls on the mum who let her 14 year-old have sex at home. Plus, Should Scotland properly celebrate St Andrew's Day?

A mother who allowed her 14-year-old daughter to have sex with her boyfriend in the family home has claimed she was trying to protect her. Daniel Balfour, 22, was placed on the sex offenders register after admitting having under-age sex with the girl. The mother said her actions meant she had some control over the situation. Was her attitude responsible? Or should she have called in the police when she first became aware of the sexual relationship?

Plus: Should Scotland properly celebrate St Andrew's Day?

An "ambitious" programme of events has been planned for cities and towns across the country, but should we be doing more to mark Scotland's national day? Should it be an official holiday? And how will you be celebrating the day?

Graham Stewart takes your calls, texts and emails.
