Welcome to Gaia! ::

Just because a school promotes abstinence doesnt mean every student is going to be abstinent...she is just being real i guess you could say by making the statement that students are still having sex weither the school likes it or not



i guess if the school doesnt acknowledge it then it doesnt happen

I agree with Nikolita. By stubbornly maintaining an abstinence attitude, a school may as well be supporting the saying, "Ignorance is bliss." (And ironically, that would be demoting their own cause.)

There is a girl in my school that has sex very often and with different partners. She's been pregnant twice and suffered miscarriages both times. I've talked to her about using condoms, but she says she wouldn't know where to get them/have a ride to get them. If condoms were more readily available to her, then her pregnancies may not have happened. I wouldn't be surprised if she has multiple STDs.

I'm not entirely sure about my own school's policy, but I think I'll check into it when spring break is over.

Hmm...Maybe I should do this at my school to see what happens. People have actually been caught in the bathrooms at my school. Was kind of funny though, the teachers in the room beside the bathroom heard the girl yelling. Turns out the guy was my ex-boyfriends's ex-girlfriends's boyfriend at the time. And of the course the girl he was caught with was the school slut known for actually doing any guy that wanted some, and admitting it if asked. So yea

I really don't agree with their policy, but you know, I'm a firm believer that the parents need to do something about that as well. I think as parents we have a responsibility to educate ourselves so we can teach our kids all things about sex, instead of making the school the teacher on something so personal. With that being said, however, I think the school should be providing an education to go along with that regarding sex if the student and parents want to participate in it. I don't understand WHY someone wouldn't want to, but it's their choice. It should be an option. I also think the parents if they want that, they should research on the schools their children go to and I think teens should also take a proactive stance on educating themselves.



Yes, I'm aware the girl wasn't trying to make a ruckus, but she did break school policy.
