Practice safe sex .

Many of today's teens do not receive sex education and are not aware of the dangers of STD's or STI's or knowledgeable about conceptions . As a result ,there is a phenomenal rise in the spread of STD's and unwanted abortions in the world around us.

A sexually transmitted disease (STD) or venereal disease (VD), is an illness due to the transmission between humans or animals by means of sexual contact, including vaginal intercourse, oral sex, and anal sex. All types of sexual activity between two people carry some STD risk.

It can also be transmitted via the use of an IV drug needle after its use by an infected person,tattoo's, blood transfusions, as well as through childbirth or breastfeeding. Some of these STD are chlamydia, gonorrhea, genital herpes,gonorrhea , syphilis and AIDS which has no cure at the present.

There are an estimated 33 million people with AIDS worldwide.Nearly half of all AIDS cases in the U.S. involve people 13 to 24 years of age. Many people are HIV positive and do not know it. The incubation period is six months. Some people may have aids and do not suffer any ill effects in the initial stages.

Many uninformed people think that they can get the STD's only from vaginal sex , not knowing that they are still at risk when they engage in "noncoital" sexual activities such as oral sex, mutual masturbation and anal sex .

Those who visit prostitutes , most often do not use condoms and they do not seemed concern for their own health.They think that getting AIDS is like striking the lottery and when they got it , they regretted and became remorseful .

The age for sex is getting younger and younger through each succeeding generations and it is not surprising that even 12 years old or below are asking or have already engaged in the sex acts.The kids are getting smarter and can learn from the internet and all those chat groups and forums online.

Most people, including adolescents, are unlikely to use condoms during oral sex, which places them at risk for acquiring an STD.

The modern day society is permissive and very open and having too many partners is another factor for the spread of STD's. It will be like playing the game of musical chairs and if you are unlucky you will get the STD.
