| Abstract | In this article, the author examines the controversial issue whether to teach sex education or sexual abstinence. Sex education has always been fraught with controversy. The discord in Westbrook, Maine, school district is noteworthy because of the vocal support for an abstinence-only curriculum approach to sex education that has reshaped the national debate over the issue--and, to an extent often overlooked, has influenced education policy at all levels of government. However, advocates for this model are sharply critical of "comprehensive" sex education, arguing that discussions about contraception, sexual orientation, or other controversial topics can encourage sexual experimentation by sending students mixed signals about what's expected of them.
