Author Jacqueline R. Kassun believes that "premarital sexual activity, teen pregnancies, and sexually transmitted diseases have risen with the increase in explicit sex-education programs in the schools." She states that"little evidence exists that sex education reduces teen sex and illegitimacy as its supporters claim." She concludes that people are taught "sex education, and pregnancy-this and pregnancy-that. But they don't teach us any rules."

Jacqueline R. Kassun is right that sex education tells us what to avoid, and the dangers and diseases that it causes, but she is also wrong because sex education does teach us rules. The ULTIMATE NO-BRAINER rule is DON'T START IN THE FIRST PLACE! Don't risk it, you never know what will happen no matter how you try to prevent it. You don't know how vulnerable your body is even if it appears to be healthy.

Some may still be in the mind set that "it will never happen to me," you can keep saying that until it does, and then what are you going to do? You will regret that you did not listen and wish that you could change the past. YOU CAN'T. Now you are stuck with your decision for the rest of your life. CAN YOU LIVE WITH THAT?
