Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know I'm here and have received a few pm's from concerned posters. Trainwreck is here to help me out and is trying to keep you all on track with the OP.
It's easy to get off topic, I've done it many times myself. Please refresh your memory by reading the OP again and let's move forward...no personal attacks either. K?
The best any of us can do is to teach them in a loving way and explain the consequences, should they have to face them. We cannot be with them 24/7 so we have to equip them with the knowledge they need and hope and pray they use it wisely.

The Bible is full of sex education. Abstinence is not a concept that is original with man of any religion or culture. The Bible says a man and a woman should be married before they have sex. If u r a Christian the Bible is the governing authority u should live by. Our personal opinions do not matter nor, have any merit unless they are based on the authority of the Word. In Genesis Adam knew or had sexual relations with his wife, not his girl friend. From the very beginning God sanctioned marriage as the criteria for sex between a man and a woman and HE has not changed HIS mind. Exodus 20:14 God commanded the children of Israel not to commit adultry. 1Corinthians 6:18 Paul states "Flee fornication" (Pre-marital sex). " Every sin a man does is without the body, but he that commits fornication sins against his own body." What are the consequences of sin? Romans 6:23 "for the wages of sin is death; but the gift or God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." God is still against premarital sex because it is not good for mankind. The Word says "No good thing will God keep from us." Now based on the Bible children should be taught abstinence and the sex education they should get should come from the Word of God. We cannot simply teach good morals without the authority of Jesus Christ. We are doing that now and it is not working. We have sex education in schools teaching our children how to engage in sexual relations before marriage. Yet, teen pregnancy, abortions, rape, the spread of STDs HIV/Aids and drug use is way up. There is no responsible way to sin...the consequences are deadly. U may not agree with me on this matter. However, respectfully I say your disagreement is not with me personally, but with God and the Authority of HIS Word.
New Data Show Rates of US HIV/AIDS Diagnoses Are Steady; Racial Disparities Persist (http://www.cdc.gov/od/oc/media/pressrel/r041201b.htm - broken link)
According to these figures, things are looking better. Let's hope that kids continue to be conscientous and think about these things before they act. Good news stretch!!
