"Talking About Sex Education: New Generation Of Parents Still Tongue-Tied About Sex". John Richardson. Maine Telegram. May 14,1995. Pp. 1C+. May 7, 1995. http://sks.sirs.com/cgi-bin/hst-article-display?id=SMN0059-0-8930&artno=0000013772&t....
This article starts off by discussing how relatives were the way people normally find out what sex is and how they learn about it. Parents find this hard to do, though. This article is basically saying that because of this, teens have no choice but to turn to other places, mainly school, for this information. The majorities of polls done in 1993's national survey show us that teens between 12 and 17 learn from media, school, and other teens before they hear from their parents. There are good arguments as to why the school is good for the educational purposes of sex. There are also strong arguments towards school not being an appropriate place to learn because they are failing to do their job, before they even start. There are arguments towards the importance of marriage as well as abstinence. It is strongly argued throughout this entire article that school replaces the gap that parents and other figures and role models make when they don't talk to their teens about sex.

"'All These Contraceptives, Videos and That...': Young People Talking About School Sex Education". Alison Woodcock, Karen Stenner, and Roger Ingham. Health Education Research, Vol. 7, No. 4, 517-531, 1992. Oxford University Press. http://her.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/7/4/517.
In this article it is talking about how sexual education comes too late for teenagers before they've already had their first sexual encounter. Media and peers pressure kids to experience sex earlier than they should be learning about it. Some kids are embarrassed through peer pressure if they haven't done something sexual by age 12. Overall, this article is about how students are pressured into sex at a younger age.

"Where AIDS Galloped, Lessons in Applying the Reins". Dugger, Celia W. New York Times. May 18, 2006. P. A4. http://sks.sirs.com/cgi-bin/hst-article-display?id=SMN0059-0-8930&artno=0000248471&t.
This article starts out by explaining the current issues of HIV and AIDS and the expenses and numbers and percentages in Africa. But, as the article goes on it compares them to the United States. This article highlights the age limits a little more. Under standards here in America, schools can fund programs that educate students 14 and younger. Condom education is not added until 15 years old. This article is also showing that condoms are being less emphasized now than abstinence as a topic of safer health. And because of this, African studies are made better through ours and more effective.

"Correlates of Condom Use and Number of Sexual Partners Among High School Adolescents". PubMed. February 1993. Dept. of Health Promotion and Education, School of Public Health, Columbia, SC. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=84
This article talks about the use of condoms and the number of sexual partners among teenagers. Right off it states that there is an obvious pattern that there is less condom use and more sex partners. This is most commonly found in White students. And yet again there were surveys made to show the evidence that the sexual activity was a majority of teenagers and the majority of those teens don't use protection. There were many categories and statistics that showed that they affect the teens' sex choices. There is an overall suggestion at the end for focusing more on a teenagers mental and emotional health.

"Study: Abstinence Classes Don't Stop Sex". Freking, Kevin. Ithaca Journal. Ithaco, New York. April 14, 2007. or according to the page: http://www.mathematica-mpr.com/publications/PDFs/impactabstinence.pdf.
In this article you will find many arguements backed up with statistics. Overall the article is stating that you cannot determine whether there is evidence of that sexual abstinence grew or whether it caused more unsafe sex. The author makes it clear that there is no evidence by stating several issues that have different factor to it to determine it as a whole. For example, the survey used in this experiment was whether the program used affected teens for less and/or protected sex more or not. Some studies showed that it did, but they were in different circumstances. But it also stated results being the same between small town and big cities. There were also the different types of programs that could have been in effect.
