I find it disturbing enough that 1 in 4 teens is having sex. But for 1 in 4 to be unlucky enough to get an STD, that must mean that a lot more than 1 in 4 are sexually active. Where did we go wrong?

We can thank former president Clinton, for a lot of it. He redefined what sex "is". So now kids grow up having a confusing definition and evidently very little clarification from their parents who should be the primary sex educators in their lives.

We spend billions for a defense department to protect us from external dangers but it seems we will die at our own hand of moral decay.
Well as my father would have said, Don't let the little head do the thinkin' for the big head.

I don't get it.......Wink

It's a very scary reality. And it seems like the age of kids having sex just keeps getting younger and younger. We hear about 14 year olds having babies in the school bathrooms who didn't even realize they were pregnant! Babies having babies...it's very sad.
