Abstinence Only Education Works Best: U of PA Study

[JohnStOnge]

I don't give a flying fvck what ANY study says about this subject, no matter where it comes from.

The government has no business teaching kids about fvcking. Where the fvck are the goddamn parents? Thanks to God or Allah or Buddha or whoever the fvck he is that I'm going to put my kids in a private school where they teach sh!t like math and science and leave talking about those things that will get teenage boys a painful death in my household to me.

Well, I don't agree with the prolific use of profanity but I do agree with the concept.

In a similar note,
I don't think gun safety should be taught to kids at all.

Instead, all kids should be taught to not use guns.

Disagree (shocker) unless you are never going to expose your children to guns in your house, or a family member's house, or a friend's house, (hell, even guns on TV), etc......IMO, it's irresponsible NOT to teach children how to handle a gun safely if there is a chance they may encounter one in any environment...

I agree with your premise (teach them not to use guns), but not the method. My father taught me how to safely handle a gun while at the same time teaching me a healthy respect for the power & damage that a gun improperly or irresponsibly handeled can inflict...

I agree (my post was being sarcastic, or ironic, or something). But the same logic should be applied to sex, because a kid/person is more likely to encounter sex than they are guns.
And both sex and guns can definitely mess up one's life when not handled responsibly.

Corrected.

True. But both men and women need to be taught responsibility.

My bad...sorry for missing the irony...
