What's the age that a child can get a prescription over there? It's 16 here I think, otherwise the parents have to be involved.

I think testing for STD's in school is ok, and I agree that the parents should be notified if the results come back positive. For that matter, I think they should be notified if the child decides to have the test. Surely that would inform the parents even part way.

Kids are very secretive as teenagers. The more communication there is between parents and teachers, the better off the kids are going to be.
