Teens also ignore calls for chastity
Just as some teenagers ignore other health warnings, so some are going to ignore warnings against pre-marital sex. Educators have a responsibility to all teenagers, not just the ones who will heed the warnings about sexual contact with others. There are students who will rely on chastity to keep themselves safe. However, not all will be able to resist temptation. In those cases, they need to know how they can protect themselves from unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease.
