Astinence-Only Education?

I find myself channeling Tom Paxton...

What did you learn in school today, dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today, dear little boy of mine?
I learned that sex is really ick, it makes you dirty and it makes you sick.
I learned to wait until I'm wed, or better still until I'm dead.
And that's what I learned in school today, that's what I learned in school.

Wow...I'd never read that before. Interesting.

Do I think it's okay to advocate no sex before marriage? If that's your moral belief, sure. But do I think it's okay for schools to tell my kids when it's appropriate to have sex? No. I mean, really...who's teaching that class? The 30 year-old teacher who just happens to be screwing the 15 year-old student??
