Sex
IT COMES AS NO surprise that a recent study done by the RAND Corporation shows that there is a strong connection between teens who watch and listen to sex and sexual talk on television and teens who engage in sexual activity...
The study, published in the September issue of Pediatrics, found that teens who watched and listened to sex and sexual situations on television were twice as likely to have sex within the next year as teens not exposed to such. To put it in real numbers, one out of every two teens who watch immoral programs on television will end up behaving that way.
THOUGHT: It isn't single events like the Superbowl half-time show that move the hearts and minds of television viewers to practice what they see. It is the litany of daily barrages in the "soaps", "sit-coms" and evening "dramas" that affect us most. (Kevin Cauley)
