"Perhaps one of the more surprising findings was that their sexual knowledge was already wide-ranging."
The researchers used a technique called 'photo-voice', providing children with cameras to make a record of the people, places and things from which they learned about sex, love, AIDS and relationships -- the resulting images are powerful and revealing.
