Sex education served up hot (as always)

Sex education is coming back to the Congressional table this spring, and Amy Sullivan of Time has this nugget in an interesting survey article:

We now have a pretty good sense of which sex-education approaches work. Substantial research--including a 2007 Bush Administration report--has concluded that comprehensive programs are most effective at changing teen sexual behaviors. They are also largely uncontroversial outside Washington. Vast majorities of parents favor teaching comprehensive sex education.
