| Abstract: | The article by Grech et al highlights the need to reduce the number of teenage pregnancies in Malta. The difference in numbers between State and non-State schools is evident and warrants further studies. Is the discrepancy due to different teaching methods or does it reflect differences in socio-economic backgrounds? Sex education has always been a controversial topic and many parents have voiced concerns that too much information may encourage experimentation and promiscuity. |
