Look at the health forums.Teen
pregnancy-over 51,000 posts!!!We as a
nation are failing to educate our children
on birth control.Please don't start about
abstinance,because you amd I know that
just doesn't work!Educating teens is very
difficult,but,my 14 year old stepson knows
he can talk to me about anything(and he
does,much to my discomfort,at times-but he
needs to know!!)he has not yet asked about
how to get birth control ,but if he asks
me or his dad,we will tell him how and
when to use it.He,s been told about safe
sex and birth control and the
responsibility of being intimate.Maybe
more info than he needed,but,maybe made
him think a little.If teens had more info
on how to prevent a pregnancy,maybe,the
number of teen abortions would be
considerably lower.I'm not saying I
condone teen sex or would want it in my
home when i'm home,but I was there once
and my mom gave me (some of my friends
also) the info I neededthanks mom!!!!

Sex Education Posted: 07-05-04 11:28am
The sex education recieved in the
classroom is very cursury.It is up to
parents to educate their children,not the
school system!!If you rely only on what is
learned in school,you bet there will
continue to be a rise in teen
pregnancy.But many parents rely on the
school system to teach their kids
everything from math to morals-so- that
brings us back to the old chestnut of who
should be having and raising children. I
know people who send their kids to
catholic school so they do not have to
teach them about religion"the nuns do
that".And you don't want a nun to teach
you about sex,because then you'll really
be messed up.I can remember some of the
things we were told and its a wonderi ever
figured out how things work!!

Those with a roman catholic education have
the lowest rates of teen pregnancy...Weird
eh?
I agree parents should face their
responsibility towards their children
more!!!
But why should they after all they were
disposable products of conception before
birth, what worth could they be now?
Undisposable products of conception!

Funny. Someone who is so against
abortion is also against sex education.
Yeah, the sex educators want unwanted
pregnancies, whatever samie. Get a
clue.
As I have said before, even doctors and
nurses and counselors who work in abortion
clinics do not force or even want the
woman to have an abortion. They are
there for support and to support her
choice. And sometimes it isn't even a
choice, it is necessary.
So, get off of your high horse, samie.
Being prochoice is not about forcing or
convincing someone to have an abortion.

Hotasfrick -when are you going to wake up
and smell the coffee?
If you were a bussiness woman and you were
making millions of dollars selling
abortions to people. You also taught sex
ed... Wouldnt you want as many of those
who you taught to go and get pregnant to
then give you their money to have a
abortion... I am not in the real
world!!!
There are some nasty people out hteir
hotasfrick and they only want dosh!
A unnamed leading abortion provider is not
caring and loving organisation they
portray themselves to be.
There is a multitude of witness
testimonies from women, abortionist,
lawyers, nurses, clinic workers testifing
that in most(not saying all) clinics
hospitals etc they offer no alternitives,
are counseled into having an abortion and
physcologicaly forced....
Why would they lie?
Why would a woman who had an abortion lie
about something like that?
What motive have they got.

What motive have they got? Simple. You
won't take the blame for making what was
the wrong decision for you. I am sorry
that in your circumstance you made the
wrong decision for you. But, stop
blaming everyone else!
Dah, samie, most "abortion clinics" are
not only places where abortion is
performed. They are also there for
counseling and birth control reasons.
And as I said before, most abortion
doctors do not just perform abortions.
They also have other practices. So, no,
they do not want women to have abortions
just so they can make money! No, you are
not living in the real world.
If a doctor didn't get enough money from
his abortions (as you see it) then he/she
would either open a general practice, or
also do obygn or whatever. They would
not go around hoping people get pregnant
so that they can perform an abortion.
That is just silly.
And as I said, sex education is a good
thing. Not a bad thing. If there was
more sex education about sex, std's and
birth control then there would be less
unwanted pregnancies. So, if this is not
what the "sex educators" want then why do
they teach it?

Well numbers of std's is rising, teen
pregnancy is rising, single mothers is
rising,
sex ed is a good thing is it?
Obviously everything they are teaching is
leading to these problems.. Its ok
because they offer a solution... K ill
the child and they will do it for a price.

All of those things are rising because of
lack of sex ed, samie! Goodness you are
so mistaken!
People who teach sex ed, teach about
methods of birth control, abstenance,
std's, pregnancy, etc.
It is those (like high schools and
whatnot) that do not include the birth
control and the other above in their
lesson plan that should not teach sex ed.
You cannot just tell someone what sex is
and then move right along. That is
misleading.
Alright samie, let's try it your way.
Let's not give any kind of sex ed
whatsoever and see how many people stop
getting std's and stop unwanted
pregnancies. That is the most ridiculous
thing I have ever heard.

How come these problems havent decreased
since we started teaching sex ed in
schools then, how come these problems were
minute in comparison prior to sex ed being
taught in schools?

I dont want sex ed to stop, just get
another organisation to teach sex ed,
someone who doesnt have any economic
agenda.

Well dear, we started teaching sex ed in
schools quite some time ago. Now women
have more rights, and times they are
changing. Things have changed a lot
since then, that is why there are more
people having sex!
It is not because of sex ed!!!!!!!!!!There
are many, many kids out there who have sex
way before they have sex ed! We have
eight year olds giving oral sex to boys on
the school bus! So, don't you dare blame
it on sex ed!

I said nothing of the sort. I did not
say it was women's fault! Grow up.
I said times have changed.
