No.2 said that "sexual activity of children is a public health issue that affects the entire society, not just the individuals involved or their immediate families.” If a child (however you define it) is sexually active, you don't think this has any effect on the public health i.e. the transmission of STD's, increased poverty rates, higher educational costs?
Your statement about parental provision for the welfare of the child relates to the appropriate solution to a public health issue. Before we get to the solution, however, I just want to see if we can agree on the problem. Do you see children having sex as a problem for society as a whole? Is it your belief that children's sexual activity has no effect on our society's public health, that any ill effects from the activity will harm only those actually engaging in it? If kids start having sex, it will have no detrimental effect on the body politic?
