First of all, tell a teen they can't do something and they will run right out and do it first chance they get. Second, if a teen is engaging in sexual activity, the best thing to do is educate them on possible consequences and protection not only from pregnancy but from disease. Third, you are encouraging young people to sneak and lie if you enforce things like this. And fourth, it is none of law enforcement's damn business. Are they going to put stocks in front of the school to shame kids too?
