And their idea of sex education is "Abstinence" don't have sex. That's like telling high schoolers to not drink alcohol, and we all know how well that's working out. Just as the alcohol, they need to get on the subject of telling youngsters how to be responsible, rather than hoping we're not going to do things that are very fun.:stoned:
This is just a thought, but why can't parents explain sex education to their children?

The last I checked your son or daughter should be the responsibility of the parents. If your child can't learn to tie his shoes do you blame the school for this? If your child doesn't know to talk to strangers and something happens.. is this the fault of the school?

It is the parents job first and foremost to instill these things into their children. The problem is that parents look for the easy way out and let the school system teach the kids about sex.

I think the school should teach about STD's and perhaps the anatomy (but that's covered in a different class also).

Why are Americans fine with not being responsible for themselves and their families?
