Evidence It Works
Obama administration bans abstinence form its Community-Centered Healthy Marriage and Relationship Grants CLICK HERE
The Health and Human Services Administration is going to spend 75,000,000 to promote healthy marriages. That’s good. They have banned abstinence education form the process. Think about it. We they are going to promote marriage without warning teens of the dangers of sex before marriage. Within the complete document Abstinence programs are the only programs that are actually banned. If you don’t believe that HHS has actually banned abstinence programs then click on the link below and then click on the “Funding Restriction” link. The ban on abstinence is the third button down.
There are enumerable studies that show the more sexual partners one has before marriage the shorter that marriage will last. Yet discouraging sex before marriage is banned. Wow. What are they going to do, send storm troopers in if a Grantee encourages little Billy not to have sex. One needs to ask HHS and the Obama administration what they find so intimidating about encouraging thirteen year olds not to have sex.
Abstinence Education is obviously a logical, medically accurate response to the problem of teen pregnancy, STDs, and sexual behavior. It is now validated by a decline in teen sexual behavior and several (over 12) peer reviewed studies
