Sex law

The health care reform legislation that President Obama signed recently isn't only about insurance coverage -- there's also a renewal of $50 million per year for five years for abstinence-focused education.

Programs that receive this funding must "teach that abstinence from sexual activity is the only certain way to avoid out-of-wedlock pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, and other associated health problems," according to the Department of Health and Human Services. To qualify, they must also teach that sex before marriage is "likely to have harmful psychological and physical effects." These are part of the "A-H definition," requirements for programs to receive abstinence funding under Title V of the Social Security Act.

this is dumb. if teens want to have sex they are going to have sex. a law won't change that. it is no different as that law passed about texting and drive. people do that all the time. that law hasn't done anything for the people because they just won't follow the law. i have text while driving and even with the law i still text and drive.
