Many teenagers, in fact, WANT to be indecent- at least by their parents standards. I say we make sex required, like taking out the garbage. Then a large percentage of teens will never want to do it. Telling them that mom and dad do it is also a guaranteed turnoff. That's why the children of libertines so often turn out to be prudes.

I agree with Steven--focusing on decency is not helpful in accomplishing what we all seem to want, and it is certainly not universally helpful.

I could not disagree more. JLA
