1. i disagree, my local f.p clinic is in the local doctors surgery....you can find them also in the yello pages
2. when i was 18, i took part in the ripple programme, basically, a group of us were trained to teach on matters of contraceptive and other things, and then we had to give a series of lessons over six weeks...... it was a good programme because the kids at 14, some of whom may already be having sex but others who were considering it, were able to talk openly with people who were not much older than themselves....i think this should be encouraged at most schools
3. yes we have a high teenage pregnancy rate, however it is not purely because kids are not taught about safe sex.....i know people from families where there are teenage mothers...and they have had it drummed into them that they should use protection...it only takes one lapse in sensibility for you to get pregnant and i am sure that most of the sexually active would admit to having been lapsed at least once

however i'd rather they practised safe sex than get married at 15,which hopefuly will never happen here because we have too much common sense.

yes practising safe sex should be essential, but i do not see how this will be effected by sweden changing their laws to marriage from age of 18
