I had to write a paper in one of my classes regarding this topic.


I think that it is time for people to become REALISTIC.

There are combined teachings where they teach abstinence first and foremost and push it as the best option, but they also teach safe sex.

I think it is important to tell them they can avoid these issues all together by abstaining, but I believe we also have to be practical that a good portion are going to have sex adn we also need to arm them with the information to stay safe if they do make this choice.
