Condom now a necessary protection

Star: PETALING JAYA: When her son left for his studies overseas at the age of 19, she told him to use condoms.
Deputy Finance Minister Datuk Dr Ng Yen Yen said she only wanted her son to be safe.
“I told him that I was not condoning him having premarital sex but just think of it as protection. I said as a mother, I would cry if you get AIDS,” she said.
Dr Ng said that parents should tell their children about safe sex.
“Teach your children how to use a condom,” she told a press conference at the Third Asia Pacific Conference on Reproductive and Sexual Health yesterday.
According to Dr Ng, many youths did not realise that pregnancy and infection would occur with just a single intercourse.
