Sex Education: Do It Like This! What Could Go Wrong?
£6m drive to cut teen pregnancies sees them DOUBLE

“A multi-million pound initiative to reduce teenage pregnancies more than doubled the number of girls conceiving.”
“The Government-backed scheme tried to persuade teenage girls not to get pregnant by handing out condoms and teaching them about sex.”
“Young women who attended the programme, at a cost of £2,500 each, were ‘significantly’ more likely to become pregnant than those on other youth programmes who were not given contraception and sex advice…”
“Because of peer pressure, the more timid teenagers were more likely to have sex and become pregnant…”
Think about these girls. Think how they must feel. They deserve better.
