Re: Sex Education for 5 year olds.
Garinda, I don't have any statistics......only my experience......and my experience showed that over 25 yeas there was a very varied mix of socio-economic groups attending for both termination of pregnancy and sexual health issues. And statistics can prove anything you want them to...depending on the interpretation and the way the statistic have been collected and collated. Despite all the Personal Health Education AND free contraceptive advice we STILL have the highest teen pregnancies......so we must be doing something wrong. I don't think educating 5 year olds is going to make any difference to the teen pregnancy rates.
Sorry if you feel I am labouring the point here.
