... miles with same-sex and opposite-sex parents

trial in Hawaii, where the original case for
homosexual marriage was tried. The studies showed

To Teach Abstinence Or Contraception
1,615 words
The act of abstinence is taught by many teachers
in American high schools nowadays as the correct
and only way to educate teenagers on pre-marital
sex, but does this education method actually
benefit students or is it sending them a bad
message? To me, I believe that schools, which are
teaching abstinence as the only way to approach
pre-marital sex send the wrong message to
teenagers because contraception is also a vital
part of the education because not everybody will
want to take part in absti...

conductors. Later, he wrote an essay about them.
What could he write about them? What would your

but the similarities between them end at that.
They have very different views on just about every
philosophical topic and retain these differences.
