Abstinence Doesn't Work
RECEIVED Tue., Nov. 30, 2004
Dear Editor,
This summer I became involved with several groups that formed to combat the Texas Board of Education and their premise of inserting into Texas school textbooks the idea that abstinence is the best form of birth control. My point is that it has never worked in the past and will not succeed in the future. On Sunday, Nov. 28, the Dallas Morning News ran a front-page story about a pregnant teenage mother of four and how mismanaged her life is. If only the DMN were required reading by the State Board of Education! Try to have a good day.
