What is the big deal? Sex is sex, it's human nature to want to experiment. If you don't sex okay then, but the school who teach abstinence only have higher unwanted teen pregnancies and STDs. Schools should teach kids about all the options not just 'sex is bad, immoral, gross, wrong, evil' and that crazy woman pretty much attacked the Planned Parenthood representitive that just shows how professional she is.
I am not religious but I am sick of liberals teaching other peoples' kids that sex is some kind of 'right'.
How would you like if I decided I needed to 'rescue' YOUR kid from YOUR beliefs & values? You'd be pretty mad. You think your right & wrong is the truth. So do I. Have some respect!
The media glorifies sex & liberals distribute booklets in the school promoting promiscuity, even suggesting it's ok to lie to parents - then they gloat cuz "abstinence doesn't work!"
joe133322 What does your comment has to do with anything? Is it hard to understand that whatever your values or ideas you have NO right to impose them on anyone. Teach your own kids whatever you want to teach them, and leave other children alone. Or is this hard to grasp.
the're not my values or ideas, without sex, we wouldn't be here talking about it. Sex is a beautiful thing that we need for the continuation of our species. Its one of the most natural things humans do, and a proper education of the subject cant be anything but good
joe133322 Yes thank you for stating the obvious about sex. Sex itself is not the issue, the issue
1) At what age should kids be exposed
2) Imposing on parents right, as well as imposition on religious rights. Once again I will repeat, you personally can teach your children whatever you want, no one has any rights to impose anything on other children
Criminal violence: When poor people or people of color rape, maim, and murder, liberals cite economics and racism as the reasons. Conservatives often cite the miserable values of the rapist, mugger, and murderer.
Teenage pregnancy and abandonment: When boys or men impregnate and then abandon young girls, liberals attribute this behavior to lack of condoms and sex education. Conservatives attribute it to the lack of self-restraint and moral education.
Wake up Religious America... you can't intimidate people who don't go to your church into following your family values. If you want to help them prevent pregnancies after they have already chosen NOT to abstain, you have to encourage them to use birth and disease control methods. This freedom of choice thing is sticky... moralizing about it won't win your argument. You have to convince them that it's better for THEM not to have sex.
I know this is not in the topic they (we will) be discussing in here, but when you said,"Wake up Religious America... you can't intimidate people who don't go to your church into following your family values." it seems as if you are saying that religious values suck hard, do they really?
No, religious values are fine for those who choose them. But once someone outside of your church and family has decided they are going to engage in sexual intercourse, trying to impose your religion on them by denying them access to birth control merely makes it more likely they will be unprotected when they choose sex anyway. You're condemning them to death and disease. Being realistic means you prepare the kids for the worst, but lovingly (not judgmentally) remind them why waiting is better.
One side is better than the other. Needless to say, there is no science behind that. I know everyone is entitled to their opinion, but this is not matter of opinion. We look in here to be entitled to be right. This isn't a yes/no way of living. By the way, religion vales are great. Look at Martin Luther King Jr. you know what he did. He was a man of God. He constantly looked at the Bible for moral code, unlike what people say about the Bible.
Religious people believe they are absolutely right, and that their interpretation of the Bible is absolutely right, and everyone else is wrong. In the real world, where some are religious and some are not, the reality is that you may need to deal with some problems in a secular way until your values are transmitted safely to the kids who are having sex. Until that point, preventing pregnancy and disease is worth the effort. It's not compromising values to keep kids alive so you preach to them.
The banishment of medically accurate sex education over the last 8 years has clearly contributed to the current rise in teen pregnancy and STDs. When I was a teen in the 70's, I was told medically how pregnancy occurs, how diseases occur and what they look like, and we were given a "parenting exercise" to understand the responsibility of raising a baby. We were all informed and the only one who had a baby after that was a rape victim. Most delayed sex till adulthood and procreated when ready.
annemcelvain Medically correct education about sex is a completely different concept to the on PP is trying to promote. What purpose does that video serve where PP teaches kids to give pet names to vegina? I see their videos as nothing but promotion of sex. I too had a factual sex ed, it was as you said about medical part of it. PP is soft core videos.
Planned Parenthood has had decades to prevent unintended pregnancies by treating humans as experimental guinea pigs, thus redesigning societal norms to the detriment of the family, the cell of society. How has this Teen Epidemic been prevented so far? with more sex ed and more pornography in the public libraries? Wake up America. Anytime sex is outside of the secure net of a mature marriage relationship, every child is at risk, whether planned or not. There will be no safe wombs at this rate.

I never thought about that. "Not moralazing but saying that it is better for them." But hey, doesn't moral value always gives the best choice?
