text: do you think that guideace conselor should help teen prevent unprotected sex ? help prevent s.t.d.?   the guidance counselor should follow district policy regarding sex-related educational topics.  parents have the final say about what their children should learn, and when...and are the driving force behind school board and state legislation regarding the guidelines the district follows.  personally, while i do believe that truly abstinence is the better part of wisdom for young people, i would rather have a guidance counselor direct a sexually active teenager toward using adequate protection, rather than see another teen pregnancy or a body damaged for life by std's.
