Teaching abstinence-only has resulted in an increase in teen pregnancy. Teaching teens how not to get pregnant does not increase the likelihood they will have sex. They're going to have it anyway.

It is crucial for the health and well-being of a nation, that it's citizens have adequate knowledge about sexual health, including contraception. Young people should be offered information that is accurate and comes on time. If decision makers and educators fail to fulfill this responsibility, it will result in deteriorating sexual health among citizens. The amount of abortions and unwanted pregnancies, for example, is very likely to increase sharply.

Absolutley, as a grandmother, I can't think of anything that would be better for young people than getting this education in a classroom rather than in the alley.
