Re: Abstinence? Did I Miss the Boat?
This is kind of related; I was at a clinic recently and they had brochures about AIDS and one of them said that 50% of kids until highschool think that AIDS is curable. Kind of scary huh? We think there is so much education out there about AIDS but obviously, more needs to be done.
Sex education is important but there is sometimes too much emphasis on how to prevent pregnancies, not enough on STDs and AIDS.
