Perhaps they shouldn't be taught HOW to have sex, but be aware of the mechanics first of all, the emotional side second. it's never too early to introduce the basics, like body part names, where babies come from and how they get there. Forget the RULES - religious and law; they can be hard to comprehend. Stick to cold hard, tangeable facts, then as natural curiosity develops, you can slowly introduce the moral aspects.

Kids need to know the truth about sex...They need to know how to protect themselves and others. I hate when I hear people say "Abstinence works as long as you practice it." My response is well of course and so does safe sex when practiced properly. To appease the masses both should be taught. Condoms and birth control should not be demonized!

I agree with this 100%..People who choose to ignore the facts,and think that their child will,not have sex,are in for a very rude awakening.

I had a discussion about this at work last week. A female friend told me about her amazing sex she had had the night before because her 16 year old daughter was away on a sleep-over and they don't often get the chance. As a quip I said that her daughter was probably away doing the same.
"Oh no, she would come and talk to me about it first, we're more like sisters"
how can people be so niave, bet you she's a granny soon.

We have evolved into a sexual society merely because it id how we reproduce. Natural selection has told us that the younger the breeders, the healthier the offspring.

Perhaps, the 'consequences' of having sex w'o bentefit of marriage, and the fact that the woman is going to end up pregnant, should be removed. In other words let society support these young, new mothers, allow them to breed WITHOUT 'consequence' but also, let them give those healthy children to women who are now old enough to raise a healthy child. But too ald to bear a healthy child.

The incedents of Autism in this country is bordering on criminal; I've noticed that older mothers, have a higher incidence of Autism in their children, that I believe is caused by changes in body chemistry over time, has been exacerbated by, the checmicals we injest every day. Thereby becoming and 'environmental' couse of Autism.

false not true realize the more we push the more they do

Let them know the truths bout it, that u can have it,

Honestly the first time I had sex was because I cared a lot for the girl i was with, it was a great moment and it happened and don't regret it

But i was more level headed then most kids

Most of these people just have sex to have it

Kids just need to know why they should wait

and if they choose to then let them

I mean my teaching was awesome, the guy said

"you can all of these tools to protect yourself, of course the only way to 100% make sure it doesn't happen is to stay abstinent but we all know people have urges and as long as you feel your making the right decision and it goes beyond then sudden urges and you've thought about the long term then you do what you have to."

It was simple and effective, I mean I had sex earlier then most but I thought long about sex things, for each girl and there hasn't been many

Daily Horoscope for December 23

Libra

Someone is shooting from the hip today, making them irascible and all too liable to fly off the handle. Be very wary about provoking them into further outbursts, particularly where the vexed topics of money and sex are concerned. If you're trying to sort out a financial problem you will also be prone to losing your rag and banging your fist on the table. But will that help?
