The trouble is, it's been proven over and over again that trying to
get adolescents to abstain from sex is futile.
Decades ago, one of the big fundie churches in Jacksonville (and
there are many of them) insisted its teens take pledges to abstain
from premarital sex. Five years later, the result? More unwed
pregnancies among these teens than among the same demographics in the
general population.
I've never understood the "hangups" Americans suffer about sex and
force upon their teen-agers. If you are practicing consensual safe
sex and you are teens of about the same age, you're doing what comes
naturally.
Let it all hang out? Is that what you are saying? Why is it you are so
scared to death to teach discipline and self discipline to the younger
folk? People like you led us down the destructive path we are on and you
don't have any idea how to properly change direction. Thanks a bunch "Me
Generation".
