On Sex-Ed Ad, McCain Is Right
What was that Illinois sex-education bill really about?
http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=NzI3ZDUzOTE0ZThlMTU3MTY0MDI4ZTY0MTZhY2I2MGY=
“The fact is, the bill’s intention was to mandate that issues like contraception and the prevention of sexually-transmitted diseases be included in sex-education classes for children before the sixth grade, and as early as kindergarten. Obama’s defenders may howl, but the bill is what it is.”
http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/fulltext.asp?DocName=&SessionId=3&GA=93&DocTypeId=SB&DocNum=99&GAID=3&LegID=734&SpecSess=&Session
Each class or course in comprehensive sex
14 education offered in any of grades K 6 through 12 shall
15 include instruction on the prevention of sexually transmitted
16 infections, including the prevention, transmission and spread
17 of HIV AIDS. Nothing in this Section prohibits instruction in
18 sanitation, hygiene or traditional courses in biology.

Condom Quick Facts

“Approximately 15 percent of women who depend on condoms for contraception will become pregnant within the first year of use. If a sexually active 15-year-old girl practices a typical use of condoms, she has a 50 percent chance of becoming pregnant before she is 20.”

“The 18-year-old singer grabbed headlines yesterday when she hit back at VMA host Russell Brand’s merciless jokes about the famed promise rings worn by tween pinups The Jonas Brothers.”
“Sparks, who also proudly wears a promise ring pledging to remain a virgin until marriage, used her moment on stage to speak up on the issue.”
“‘It’s not bad to wear a promise ring because not everybody, guy or girl, wants to be a sl*t.’” (source)
