Re: Parental responsibility

I don't think that is exactly true...about the unwanted pregnancies.
The teen pregnancy rate has fallen in this country to the lowest rate for decades.
Contraception has been available to young teens for a long time(via Community and sexual Health services and also through Brook Advisory) I think that this has had an impact on teen pregnancies.
And I know what I am talking about as I worked within the NHS in this speciality.

I am not sure that sex education lowers inhibitions....if you are not keen to exhibit you nakedness then I do not see how sex education would change that.
