Sex education? No, we need love education. It's true that young people need to learn about sex, body parts and having babies, but just those make up an incomplete lesson. (And let's not delve anymore into that big lie called "sexual rights.") What young people need to know today is that sex is a gift--a gift that should be received with responsibility and in the proper time.
Young people need to understand--not how to get what you want without being, as some famous politician puts it "punished with a baby"--but the role that sex plays in strengthening commitments, raising a happy family, and filling a home with love.
With that, let me invite you all to an interesting conference.
