As of Jan. 1, 2015, 19 states require that if provided, sex education must be medically, factually or technically accurate. This number needs to turn into all of the US requiring all high schoolers to undergo a sexual education class, unless their parents decide to opt their child out. Wether it be medically, factually, or technically, teens need to learn about the risks of sex and how teenage pregnancy can affect your life. 2011 CDC survey indicates that more than 47 percent of all high school students say they have had sex. Roughly one in four girls will be pregnant at least once before their 20th birthday.
The US has the highest teen birth rate in the industrialized world. This can change with your signature.
