'This is not a game'


Abstinence advocate gives students firm talk


Frank, sincere and powerful words about sexual abstinence boomed to Sturgis High School students Monday."Real love respects," said national abstinence speaker, Pam Stenzel. "Love would never ask you to do something that would damage you the rest of your life."Stenzel spoke with a passion that captured the attention of hundreds of teens. The cost of having a baby, the risks of obtaining an STD and the price of a broken heart were all part of Stenzel's hour-long assembly.


The No. 1 fear teens have today about having sex is pregnancy, Stenzel said. But pregnancy is not a disease. It's survivable.
