what the experts say

Many researchers have a lot to say about my side that sex education should not be taught in schools.
Jacqueline Kasun, a professor of economics at Humboldt State University, researched that “1 in 10 teenage girls in the United States becomes pregnant every year.” This quotation supports my argument because although sex education classes teach girls about birth control and the protection, they do not realize how often students can become pregnant.

With the Untied States having the highest rate of teenage Sexually Transmitted Diseases, statistics show that the number of students who are infected with STD’s are rapidly growing each year. A few years ago the numbers of teenagers becoming infected with STD’s was just over 3 million, 8 years later Anne Stalley, a researcher states that “Over 15 million teenager Americans are infected with sexually transmitted diseases each year.”

With a recent survey by the Heritage Foundation, they found that, “only 7% of parents are happy with sex education curriculum that is offered in American Schools.” Parents are complaining that sex education classes are not stressing the abstinence message that they want their children to learn. Parents are very concerned with the explicit information that there children are learning about.
