We're facing a teen-health crisis. One in four American girls has a sexually transmitted disease and the teen birth rate is up in 26 states. The Responsible Education About Life (REAL) Act would establish the first-ever federal sex education program.

There is only one way to control and turn this trend around, truth and education, EDUCATION, EDUCATION...honesty will go much farther to influence young people then scare stories.
