"..She, it...him or her.....is promoting sex education via Planned Parenthood...."

Absolutely!!

What a shame. I don't think lack of education lead to this girl's tragic loss of virginity. Lack of education just led to ignorance. Really, she wasn't given moral guidance that she would regret this decision.

"Oh yeah, I REALLY believe a kid actually wrote this....."

My feelings exactly. NO mention of the church; no mention of moral training in the household or neighborhood or extended family. Nope. Our only hope is "sex education". Her lack of sex education made her run around and screw like a rabbit in heat.

Riiiiiiiiiiight.

Someone with an agenda wrote this, and they did a ridiculously transparent job of it.

Change the name to "Agenda" magazine:)

my daughter is 15, extremely intelligent and a gifted writer. She attends an all girls catholic school. we have had extensive talks about sex and she is totally comfortable in asking me questions etc. She has excellent morals and would NEVER advocate sex education in school as a PREVENTATIVE.

while you are obsessing on whether an actual 15 yo wrote this, i think it is much more telling as to what she said. it just doesn't MAKE SENSE. sex education doesn't curtail premarital sex, MORALS do. and you do not get morals in school, you get them at home, from your parents! so whether it is an actual 15 yo or a fictional one, the message is the WRONG ONE! yes, you wait to have sex, but NOT because of sex ed in school, because you have someone discussing morality and godliness with you at home.

Of course she would not. She has not rebelled from your good parenting and sunk into a pit. The other girl did. Her family was unable to pull her out by themselves.

schools are not going to preach abstinence, they are going to preach birth control. even the catholic schools are not as hard core on abstinence as i would like them to be and they are ANTI-birth control. what exactly are you espousing here?i don't understand your point, other than your attempts at convincing others that this is a real 15 yo girl. yes, there are going to be kids that rebel against the most excellent parenting and do wrong. i do not want a public school teacher inculcating their morals or lack thereof in my children. which is why none of my kids are in public school, but that is neither here nor there. the point is that sex ed classes are not the answer. more effective parenting perhaps. these parents could not have been that on the ball, if she didn't know what a condom was etc. After my daughter had sex ed in 8th grade science class in her catholic school, she came home and asked me all the stuff she was not comfortable asking there, including slang terminology for different things etc. There is no way that schools should be in the sex ed business, be it for REAL or FICTIONAL 15 yos.

"How AOLish."

Wow, wouldn't want to be called AOLish. Sorry. I dropped AOL. Does that count?

And the language used is what an adult author might THINK a teenager would sound like.

exactly.

I got a very similarly written "Mass e-mail" from some bible thumping group trying to guilt me out of some "love offerings" about 8 years ago.
