To awaken is to cause someone to rise up from sleep or inactivity and become sensitive to his environment. It is for such person to wake up and be active. It is for someone to become fully conscious, alert and aware, not asleep. This write up has a focus on the underage and school age children practicing love relationship. They have to take caution because of the many terrible and unpalatable results of such practices. Love relationship is not for inexperienced, underage and school children. If they enter into it, it may become so uncontrollable and may damage their future life chances. So they should be warned not to 'wake up love' because if they do, they may not be able to put it to rest again. There is danger in eating unripe fruits.
