Regardless of any statistic, allowing our children to be tought sex in the classroom amounts to yet even more issues of personal responsibility on the parents part. It's neither the public nor the taxpayers responsibility to make sure YOUR child does not get an STD or pregnant, it is and has always been the parent's ultimate responsibilty. Does parental responsibilty even exist anymore? Good grief. It's always someone elses fault and/or respsonsibilty these days. If my daughter got pregnant as a teen, it would have been her doing and I would have been disappointed in her and myself, as it should be. Let's face it, kids are going to have sex, it makes them feel mature and it's pleasurable, but wouldn't you rather know that if your child is going to do this that they don't learn the facts from a perfect stranger and often times skewed by this stranger's personal opinions?... religion, morality and so forth.

What I did with my daughter was tell her the truth. It's fun but you can die or get pregnant if you're not careful. End of story.

P.S. I teased in a not so teasing way only a parent can do and always tell my daughter, " I'm locked and loaded should a boy try." LOL
