No it is not true. Catholic priests ruined everything we believed in.

If sex education in your schools is such a bad thing, then why is the rate of teen pregnancies in the US twice as high as in Canada where we do have sex ed in our schools?

Are you seriously suggesting that kindergartners learning about not touching private parts of others has a strong link to teen pregnancies?

No, I think he is linking our lack of good sex education throughout schooling is the strong link to teen pregnancies. Abstinence only sex ed has to be some of the dumbest education we could give teens.

I can't understand how anyone would not want children to learn about good touch/bad touch. I really question the motives of anyone against that being taught.

I cant understand why anyone would want the federal government performing the role of parent to their children.
What a dangerous concept that is.

At least they never have to worry about those priests teaching children about bad touch.
