[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Re: the HIV+ child and generational issues.

When aids first became an epidemic, it WAS a death sentence.  Research and treatments are making it something one can live with.

However, just because it is survivable doesn't make it something you want to contract.  Not to mention the other stds still out there and also stuff that could kill you.

Don't slack off on condoms just because HIV is no longer an immediate death sentence.[/quote]

How is not wanting to stigmatize HIV the same as choosing not to use condoms?!  It just really makes me sad to see how misinformed the statements regarding people, especially children, with HIV are.  Especially when the number of AIDS orphans in the African continent is exploding, and we may well see larger numbers of children adopted to the US who have HIV.  Please, don't let your kids treat these children as pariahs!![/quote]

I'm the PP who originally brought up the millennial thing, and I stand by my comment.  Don't stigmatize, but treat it seriously.  Younger people aren't.[/quote]
