Oh yeah - my boys know NO MEANS NO... they're not to the age yet where they're even talking about girls yet (10 year old is pretty immature) but they will get talks about not pressuring or putting themselves in bad situations... I think it helps that they're raised by a single mom.. .I hope that helps 
And yes - I am graphic about how nasty STDs are - and when they're older they'll even see pictures... in Sex ed classes STDs are only briefly mentioned around 6/7th grade and some districts do show pictures of them in high school - I'll be ahead of that game
