Directive Sex Education Is Our Best Hope.
Lickona, Thomas
Educational Leadership, v52 n2 p76-77 Oct 1994
When criticizing the author's character-education article in the November 1993 "Educational Leadership," William Bennetta fails to acknowledge that nondirective sex education has failed. Abstinence is not the Religious Right's invention, but is the only medically safe, morally responsible choice for unmarried teenagers. The Teen-Aid and Sex Respect programs have succeeded. (MLH)
