POPS1 in 4 teen girls has sexually transmitted disease Surprisingly this hasn't made it to Clipmarks yet. I find this ludicrous...."Blame is most often placed on inadequate sex education, from parents and from schools focusing too much on abstinence-only programs." That is extremely sad. Parents not teaching their children about NOT having sex is a complete shame, but the Media (all of it!!) coupled with the collapse of the principle of 'shame' and responsibility have contributed to this disaster among our young girls.
