"With regard to the HIV/AIDS epidemic, the contextual political issues are somewhat controversial… We need health education programs which acknowledge and showcase the many, many benefits of abstinence, but also listen to the actions of our youth and educate them on how to make their behaviors safer. Even if we think young people are making a mistake by becoming sexually active, can we allow them to pay with their lives when we have information that will save them?
