Jane Pauley's show today on teen pregnancy...
http://www.thejanepauleyshow.com/aboutshow/today.html

"The Education of Shelby Knox
Filmmakers Marion Lipshcultz and Rose Rosenblatt showcase the debate over whether schools should teach abstinence as a rule or teach comprehensive sex education in their PBS special The Education of Shelby Knox (which airs on PBS on June 21st). The film follows a young, Christian, Republican and her transformation into a Liberal Christian and Democrat who leads the charge for comprehensive sex education in her small town."

I heard a little of this interview this afternoon and was very impressed y Shelby Knox. She eventually even left her Southern Baptist Church. This issue, and its reality which she was seeing every day at school, transformed her into a Liberal.

1. I can't help myself.
I'm kicking because I thought some DUers might be interested in the PBS program coming up on this in June.

3. Here's the link to the PBS page about the Shelby Knox video:

Where I live, the Jane Pauley show airs during my working hours, so I've never seen it.

But I certainly agree with you on the importance of this topic, and your post inspired me to go to the PBS website and look up the program you mentioned. Thank you for the heads up! I hope to catch the June 21st airing of "The Education of Shelby Knox" (extra plug ;-) ).

4. Given the changes
at certain government supported public media...I hope we'll be able to see this documentary. After all, don't we need a mandate to spend
precious financial essences?:sarcasm:
