This is true but fatherlessness is not a result of sex ... rather it is a result of abdication of responsibility for the consequences of sex (as is abortion).
What we should be selling to kids ... and this has NEVER been done in the entire history of humankind ... is personal responsibility of BOTH parties to conception and their obligation to the person they have created. This is a novel concept, that if instilled in our youth (both boys and girls) and backed up in our laws ... would I believe have the effect intended by this film.
If we're going to use a "Scared Straight" approach to deterrence for kids ... let's use one that we intend to back up with LAW ... making biological parents (that's parentS plural) legally responsible for the children they create.

This is a novel concept Not really novel at all, you see, IMHO, God has been teaching it for thousands of years.
