According to a government-funded study of sexual habits in Britain, the average age at which British teenagers first have intimate relations is 16, the lowest level ever recorded.
Analysis of the available data indicates that a third of teenagers indulge in illicit sexual relationships before they reach 16. This government study went on to show that one in three underage teens engages in sexual activity.
Millions of pounds of tax money have been spent in dealing with this problem, which naturally results in countless unplanned pregnancies and helps send rates of sexually transmitted disease soaring.
The human cost to society in needless suffering is incalculable. Competent sex education is important in dealing with the dilemma, but even that can prove counterproductive if it is not accompanied by sound moral teaching from the Bible.
