Do you think schools or parents in discussing Sex Ed should discuss these alternatives along with abstinence or do you think abstinence alone is enough?
I honestly think it should be both. It's no surprise what stupid things people choose to believe, and pass on to their kids. Abstinence alone is a lofty goal, but it's a rare kid who's stronger than raging hormones-it's kind of like telling a kid that there's this really powerful motorcycle that he already "knows how" to ride-doesn't need any "lessons" there, 'casue they're hardwired. The bike's sitting right over there, and here are the keys, in fact, you've had them for the last year or so, and they're hardwired too. Now, I'm going to go away, and you shouldn't ride it, and just to make sure you follow my advice, I'm going to keep the leathers and helmet that are needed for minimal safety.
"Here's the keys, don't you ride that thing until I say you're ready." Right. That'd work....
