A national study on sex education conducted by Kaiser Family Foundation
shows
most parents want their kids to know the bare facts.
85% surveyed want the school to teach their kids how to use a condom.
84% want teachers to discuss other forms of birth control. 94% want sex
education to deal with teen pressure to have sex. 79 % say their kids
should discuss abortion and
76% even want sexual orientation discussed in school.
THERESA NELSON/
PARENT: I THINK IT'S GOOD FOR THEM TO TEACH CHILDREN THAT, I THINK THEY
SHOULD KNOW.

Parents say solid sex education can give teens something they may not be
getting at home and clear up those popular misconceptions. And as for
teens like this college freshman, who learned about sex in the 3rd grade, the earlier sex education is taught, the better.

The study found that women who ate
two to three slices of whole-grain bread daily were 30 percent to 40 percent less likely to have an ischemic (ihs-KEE'-mihk) stroke.
Those are strokes caused by blocked arteries in the brain.
