Question by Jerry: Why do we misrepresent the case with all this talk of abstinence only education ?
I think that one of our biggest problems with kids stds and pregnancy is that we place emphasis in the wrong place.

I.E. there are always reports on “abstinence only programs” but what we fail to notice is that, teaching “everything except abstinence” is being equally ignorant.

Seriously, I remember my sex-ed classes consisted of long discussions on all the types of contraceptives, and only at the end of the class would the teacher mention that abstinence is an option.

There are those that are always quick to argue that “abstinence only” denies the children knowledge, yet refuse to even include abstinence in their sex-ed curriculum.

Shouldn’t the aim of middle and hgh school education be to teach responsibility.
