In real life, real teens need real answers.
So Planned Parenthood has created www.teenwire.com
, the safe place in
cyberspace about sexual health and relationships, where teens can get the real
story. A place where teens can ask real-life personal questions, and get
responsible answers. Fully confidential. Open 24 hours. Worldwide. Playing at a

WHY:
|
Teen
pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections are still widespread problems for
America's young people. Although sexuality is a routine theme of the
entertainment and news media, most teens have had no reliable, easy-to-access
source of responsible information about sexual health. Until
now.
