Kirby explains several studies that have been conducted in the last decade and introduces the statistics of that year of teen pregnancy and STD/HIV, he then states the correlation of the two, which explains if one of the five programs work or not. In order to improve the health programs in schools and prevent teen pregnancy, this article was written. The intended audience are United States parents, teachers, and advocates of abstinence and prevention of teen pregnancy. This will provide ethos in my paper, as well as a demonstration of the solution of the problem.

"Pathways to Early Coital Debut for Adolescent Girls: A Recursive Partitioning Analysis" is a study conducted by Matthew R. Pearson, Tatyana Kholodkov, James M. Henson, and Emily A. Impett claiming the factors that may lead to early involvement with sex in young girls. The group examined a sample size of 104 adolescent girls and tried to identify which were at high risk of engaging in sex by high school by putting them in different groups by asking several sexual questions. In order to try to identify why young girls are having sex so early, this study was conducted. The intended audience are educated adults looking to prevent and understand the problem of young girls having intercourse. I will use this to bring ethos to my paper and relate the problem in the real world with numbers.

The intended audience is the authors' peers, but it beneficial to parents as well. This will further explain my point of young girls and sex, it will bring to light where this could come from and how the internet can play a huge part.

Written in 1979, "The Context of Sex Education and the Reduction of Teen-age Pregnancy" by Peter Scales explains the positive aspects of health classes in that time period. To explain his thesis, he goes on a timeline through statistics of teen pregnancy in the past decades, then comparing them to what is going on in the present time the article was written. In order to give insight on the positive effects of health classes in schools, this article was written as a dimensional opinion. The intended audience could be concerned school administration, parents, and US patrons trying to prevent teen pregnancy. This will be a great addition to my paper, saying that the problem with young teens having sex has longtime been a problem, even in the seventies!
Osborne, Ruth Farnham. "Boys And Family Life Education." Marriage & Family Living 23.1 (1961): 50-52. SocINDEX with Full Text. Web. 11 Mar. 2012.
"Boys and Family Life Education" by Ruth Farnham Osborne (1961) explains the importance of a boys understanding of feelings, how it's not unacceptable to express them, and the utter importance of talking about sex and the realness of it all. She uses plenty of pathos to express her points and quotes boys of her age. Her purpose is to bring light to the double standards of views of sex by both sexes, but shedding light on the often missed boy point of view, especially in her time period. The intended audience are her peers and parents. I will use this to explain the mind of young people when it comes to the injustice of the double standards that come as the consequence of young people having sex.
