Available for over a year

In a country where birth outside marriage is unacceptable and contraception is prohibited, we discuss why the introduction of sex education in schools is so important for the nation’s youth. Also on the show, how in some parts of the United States, teenage pregnancy outside of marriage isn’t just accepted; it’s considered ‘cool’.
