"When minors are told that sex in any way, shape, or form is dirty and shameful, it discourages them from being safe when they do become sexually active because it has been stigmatized."
Who is teaching that to young people? It's not in the abstinence education curriculum. They teach that sex is a great thing to be shared between two people in marriage, and that outside of marriage there are some very dangerous consequences. Our schools need to be holding young people to the highest standard, if parents want their children to learn about condoms they should be doing that at home.
