Most schools only promote an abstinence based curriculum when it comes to sex education. It is hard to understand the hesitance of teaching a real class that educates the hidden dangers of sex to these kids. Many people still fight against an actual class that teaches our children about safe sex, contraceptives and how to properly use them. I assume it is felt we are arming our children with the necessary weapons to throw all out orgies, spreading around un-godly evilness.
With the popularity of shows such as "Teen Mom" it has become more evident our youth knows little to nothing about proper precautions to avoid unwanted pregnancy and disease. In my city alone there are 90, yes 90, girls in one high school that are pregnant. I am not giving the green light to these children to participate in dirty deeds done dirt cheap, but instead protecting them and arming them with the necessary tools to make educated decisions.
Why do you think this day in age with teen pregnancy and the infant mortality rate as high as it is in our civilized, advanced society we are still reluctant to teach real sex ed? Abstinence is best, of course, but lets face it. It is outdated and clearly not working.
