Ignorance Is Not Bliss...




This article & many others released in recent times discuss how Sex Ed is on the decline.  You can read the article or Google for others & get the gist of the message.  The point is that some people got this insane idea that teaching abstinence only was the key.   It's resulted in a much higher teenage pregnancy rate & a generation that has little real understanding sex & it's consequences.

In a time when HIV & other STD's are prevalent, we have allowed some people's prudery to endanger young people & burden them with unwanted pregnancies.  IMO, sex ed should start as early as possible & grow with the child in order to help protect them from predators, STD's & pregnancy.  This isn't a private family thing, this is a national health matter.

Cya...
