" Picture this: You&amp;#039;re in sex ed class. Your teacher could either teach you not to have sex before marriage or how to be safe if you decide to do it. Which would you rather?  I&amp;#039;m sure you&amp;#039;ve been hearing a lot about the new health care reform that was recently passed. So, how does it affect you? One of the things in it is a renewal of $50 million per year for five years for abstinence-focused education. That means that only programs that tell students not to have sex until marriage will get this funding.   We say this in Seventeen a lot: abstinence is the only way to 100% avoid pregnancy and STDs. But, do you want to know about practicing safe sex- even if you&amp;#039;ve decided not to be sexually active yet? Do you think being taught abstinence only will help or hurt you when it comes to sex ed? Let me know.  XOXO -A. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
