Should 'Abstinence-Only' Sex-Ed be Taught in Public Schools?
What should public schools teach our children about sex? It can be a complex question, especially when dealing with morals, social norms, pop culture, hormones and health. When students sit down for their sex education, should teachers embrace an abstinence-only policy?








Less Sex, More Contraception
Also agreed.. Kinda.
I'm also for the two-sided program. Teens need to be informed on the subject as much as possible, but too much information might have the opposite effect. It's like when your mom told you not to do something when you were a kid; it made you want to rebel and do the exact opposite of what you were told not to do. Pushing too much of this info into these teen's minds will also cause them to do the opposite, or so I think. I agree a lot with Happy Medium idea.
