The results of a national online study show that 45% of teenagers consider their parents to be their sexuality role model. Shattering stereotypes that parents and society hold about teen sexuality, the survey also revealed that only 32% looked to their friends and just 15% took inspiration from celebrities. Dr. Jean-Yves Frappier will be presenting the survey results at the Canadian Paediatric Society's 88th Annual Conference on June 18, 2011. Frappier is a researcher at the University of Montreal's affiliated CHU Sainte-Justine Hospital Research Center (Health Outcomes Research Axis).
