We learnt all about sex but not at what cost?

WE received sex education when I was in secondary school.

We were told this was necessary because we were likely soon to be sexually active, and we needed to make ‘responsible’ choices. As it says in the Simpsons cartoon: “Now that you know what to do, don’t do it.”

Deirdre Seery hits the nail on the head when she says (Irish Examiner letters, July 6), “it is difficult for... young people to feel normal in a world which constantly talks about teenage sex.”
