Does anyone else feel like we are in a downward spiral away from common sense? I have seen so many pushes in the abstinence movement, and yet it has repeatedly failed. People contending that by getting someone to sign a piece of paper and say they wont have sex is somehow educating them? This is ridiculous. We have children and parents that are completely ignorant on disease and rather than educating their children about sex, informing them on birth control and how to be safe, and THEN encouraging them to wait... they jump right to the last part... dont have sex, you''' catch AIDS, get pregnant, it will ruin your life and it is better to wait till you are married...
I am not encouraging kids to have sex, but I understand that it is a realistic inevitability. I would rather my child be informed and safe than ignorant, and misinformed.
