To those of you that assert kids will have sex i'm going to disagree with you on this point. I have many friends in their mid twenties who are virgins by choice. These are very attractive people who have been heavily into the dating scene for years. Most of my lady friends wear "true love waits" rings. Telling a kid don't have sex but if you do wear a condom is not the same message as don't have sex. A kid is more likely to have sex if you tell them if they do wear a comdom, it is like saying to the kid, here is my rule but i know you are going to break it.
It is a parents duty to raise their kids and teach them values. If a parent decides that it is best for their kid to only be taught abstience than that is their choice. Parents should not be leaving sex education up to others. What is wrong with teaching abstience in the schools and leaving the use a condom up to the parents? I say teach kids about STD's, unwanted pregnacy, ect and then tell them the only sure way to prevent this is abstience. Then if parents want to say you can also use a condom to prevent that it is up to them.
