Abstinence Education Evidence of Success

Abstinence education backers presented evidence of success to Capitol Hill last week, telling success stories of abstinence programs to lawmakers. On April 29, leading experts presented evidence, that we all know to be true, this evidence showed abstinence education works best for young people. Forty national studies demonstrated the effectiveness only education for students. Doctor Stan Weed, a nationally known researcher, presented evidence, which debunks the myths about abstinence education and showed that abstinence programs actually out perform comprehensive sex education programs.

This is evidence we all know is true. The results over the years have convinced most people that abstinence only education produces positive results. Comprehensive sex based education, for the most part, is tax-payer funded and has abysmal results. However, they fund beaurocrats. They're not in the best interest of teens.
