Five young female students from Poland are pregnant after engaging in a sex game with male students, thenews.pl reported.
The students, who are between the ages of 14 and 15, became pregnant after playing a game called “the sun” or “a star.”
“Girls lay on the floor in a circle with their heads together and eyes closed and boys copulate with them, taking turns,” one of the students revealed to the news agency. “The winner was the boy who managed to finish the intercourse last.”
Two of the five girls have already given birth, according to the school’s headmaster.
Prosecutors are investigating, but they said the parents and teachers of the teenagers from the northern town of Ostrodo are not willing to cooperate. According to the report, sex education is lacking at the school, with no one to talk to the students about how such games can lead to pregnancy.

Library services to young adults should aspire to two fundamental objectives: to engage young people through meaningful and appealing responses to their recreational and informational needs, while supporting good developmental outcomes. How are those of us who work in libraries, who may see teens only sporadically and for short periods, supposed to work effectively with them? --From the Introduction How do we best reach our teen patrons? Young adult librarians and others who serve them constantly strive to better understand this often-unpredictable audience. In this insightful guide, Jennifer Burek Pierce provides a fascinating look at today s teen through the lens of neurological, psychological and educational research. Putting this research in the context of library services, she challenges librarians to question their assumptions about teen patrons and provide new answers based on research finding. Much like early literacy research informed library services to youngest patrons, this provocative book outlines what others who work with adolescents have learned from their professional activities and how that knowledge can encourage new priorities and partnerships in youth services. Use this research to: Â· Help sort out the facts from fiction about adolescent brain development and sexuality Â· Equip staff to understand and sensitively interact with teens Â· Foster understanding about teens, technology, and multitasking Â· Incorporate teen friendly services and activities into the library

If I had to guess, I'd say this book is aimed at librarians who don't regularly work with teenagers. it starts from a basic premise of "hey! Teens aren't really space aliens!", which is great, but then it contradicts it by talking about how young teens are just so radically different from adult librarians for so many reasons (because they grew up with different technology, because they have different brain chemistry, because they're at a different stage in their lives, etc). I skipped over a lot
If I had to guess, I'd say this book is aimed at librarians who don't regularly work with teenagers. it starts from a basic premise of "hey! Teens aren't really space aliens!", which is great, but then it contradicts it by talking about how young teens are just so radically different from adult librarians for so many reasons (because they grew up with different technology, because they have different brain chemistry, because they're at a different stage in their lives, etc). I skipped over a lot of the chapter on teen brain development (it's nothing new; just a rehash of all the research done to date) but a lot of what's here seems either obvious (teens play video games! teens may be prone to risky behavior!) or inaccurate (parents should avoid buying their teens violent first-person-shooter games, sometimes called "role playing games," which, no, not really). Those who can, do. This author teaches classes in children's and teen resources at the U of Iowa's library school. Her pop-culture references are out-of-date (Weetzie Bat, anyone?) and one gets the impression she hasn't actually interacted with real teens in at least ten years. If you've met a teenager--any teenager--within the last decade, you probably don't need to spend the time reading this book.

This took me forever to finish. Mostly, it was a research review of teen development and behavior, which you would have already learned about if you have taken a child development course. I was hoping for connections from teen research to practical library applications, but that's not what this book is about. It was pretty dry and some sentences were so jargony and awkward it took reading them 4-5 times before they made sense. But, for librarians who haven't studied teen development in the last
This took me forever to finish. Mostly, it was a research review of teen development and behavior, which you would have already learned about if you have taken a child development course. I was hoping for connections from teen research to practical library applications, but that's not what this book is about. It was pretty dry and some sentences were so jargony and awkward it took reading them 4-5 times before they made sense. But, for librarians who haven't studied teen development in the last 10+ years, it could be helpful. A quote from Aidan Chambers inspired this excellent excerpt that I plan to use next time I hear one of my colleagues worrying that 'these teens just don't read' or 'I don't know about this generation, they're on their cell phones all the time': "There is no such thing as an adolescent. It is a state in life. They are as diverse as we are." These ideas challenge librarians to consider the adolescent as an individual rather than a member of a cohort with particular characteristics. It suggests that for every video-game-playing teen there is a quiet reader, or even that the gamer may want reading material that might seem to be at odds with his or her screen-involved persona. Instead of thinking of youth appeal in reductive terms in order to make easy connections between resources and young people, Chambers presents the need to consider each young person as an individual.

In this book, Jennifer Burek Pierce gathers research about adolescent development, psychology, and education from other disciplines and presents it in terms relevant to librarians, who work with teens, but don’t necessarily interact with them on a daily basis. It covers topics such as brain development, myths and realities about teen behavior and interests, diversity, sex, and technology. Each chapter includes an excerpt or interview from an outside source, well versed in the topic and an annotated list of suggested readings, in addition to the references. Easy to read and extremely informative, it is a perfect introductory guide for librarians who work with teens (and even those who don’t).

I have to read this book for my Children and Young Adult programming class. I was really disappointed in the content, or lack of content, in this book. It really is about sex, brains, and video games for young adults. As a librarian, I know that I should understand the differences between teen brains, etc, but really? I need to know this much? I guess I wanted this book to take the information offered and I wanted to see it translated into real library world examples that I could use in offering

This is a textbook from my YA literature course. It contains a lot of great information about teens' preferred styles. It is a bit too technical for me -- very heavy in statistics -- but done so in a reasonable fashion.

FOX News' Kevin Corke reports on evolving details in federal investigation into Florida congressman on 'Special Report'
Long before bombshell allegations of federal sex trafficking rocked the political world this week, Rep. Matt Gaetz 's rumored sexual conduct was already a source of controversy.
When Gaetz was a young state lawmaker in the Florida House of Representatives, he allegedly participated in a competition with fellow male lawmakers to earn points for their sexual conquests, the Business Insider reported Friday.
Having sex with married lawmakers and spending the night in a college sorority house earned the lawmakers extra points. And the ultimate prize was sleeping with one particular conservative woman, they dubbed the "snitch," in a nod to the "Harry Potter" game of Quidditch, a Republican who worked with Gaetz in the 2010s revealed in an interview with the Insider.
The game was the "worst kept secret in Tallahassee," the GOP insider said.
The sex competition in Tallahassee has been alleged before by Chris Latvala, a Republican state representative. During a 2020 Twitter feud with his former colleague, Latvala said Gaetz "created a game where members of the FL House got 'points' for sleeping with aides, interns, lobbyists, and married legislators."
Gaetz replied to Latvala at the time, "just because I own you on twitter, don’t confuse me for your daddy when it comes to abusing power for sex." That was a reference to Latvala’s father, Jack, who resigned from the Florida Senate in December 2017 amid sexual harassment allegations.
