Okay. I am flabbergasted. 2012 and a buddys daughter, 19 just got pregnant. Her claim? "I always heard you couldn't get pregnant the first time". REALLY???

It's very sad that, what I like to call "The Dumbing Down Of America" is happening. Making kids think that everyone's a winner, real life advice and knowlege will be harmful, and no accountablity hurts EVERYONE!
Sex ed is no more. They just get puberty education!
Where's the education when it comes to sex? I know parents are supposed to do that, but I know my mom never discussed it with me, and I learned a lot from sex ed classes. Learning what can happen if you choose to participate in sex is key. Not just the "OMG" factor, but the STDs, pregnancy risks, and dispelling the myths. Kids are going to believe their peers over most other people, but some will believe teachers/educators more, if they were given that option!
