Jordan, Timothy R.; Price, James H.; Fitzgerald, Shawn
Journal of School Health, v70 n8 p338-44 Oct 2000
Surveyed rural parents regarding their perceptions of the characteristics, content, and comfort level of discussions about sexual issues with their teens. Results indicated that most respondents believed the family should play a prominent role in sexuality education, with help from the school starting before seventh grade. Most parents felt sexuality education should include information on birth control. (SM)
