Aside from the fact that teenagers will be confronted with all kinds of unrealistic ideas about sex in the media regardless of abstinence only education, it just seems counterintuitive to me that the best way to help young people make wise decisions would be to withhold information from them. I am always 100% honest, forthcoming and responsible about dispensing this kind of information; it's a shame that the current administration doesn't operate that way.
