The document discusses different approaches to sex education in schools. It considers abstinence-only education and comprehensive sex education (known as "abstinence-plus") that teaches both abstinence and contraception use. The document argues that the abstinence-plus approach is best as it gives students all the information while still promoting abstinence, and that sex education should start in elementary school and continue through high school with age-appropriate curricula.
