So, if you were to factor in the amount of girls/women who do have that infection (in total about 7 million people in the US infected EACH YEAR), the numbers do seem to add up. Remy,

It’s a complicated thing to discuss with your children, I know, but I think it can be done. I believe that if you bring up your child to look at things with an open mind, he/she will learn to ask intelligent questions, even about the stupidest and “dirtiest” of things. And of course, when they ask innocent questions, you need to be prepared with an informative and intelligent answer as well. oh yeah, i totally agree about being opening your lines of communication with your children regarding sex.
