- I picked this topic after listening to the radio on my way to class. Parents in a certain county in West Virginia are going to be given a preview of the sex education class their children will be presented. Teen pregnancy is extensive in this county. I am a parent of a teenage daughter and would approve of her attending a class on sex education. We have a great relationship and talk often but it would be nice to be backed up by educators.
