Condoms for children aged 12 and 14 have been designed in Switzerland after a study showed that sexually active teenagers avoid using contraceptives due to unsuitable sizes.
The main difference with these condoms is their diameter – 45 mm, compared to standard condoms sizes ranging from 49 to 56 mm. The engineers believe the new design will prevent slipping of condoms during sexual intercourse.
The project was powered by the Swiss Aids Federation after the Federal Commission on Children and Youth’s research had shown the sharp growth in the number of sexually active children under 14, in comparison to the 1990s. The study also demonstrated that children have rather poor knowledge regarding means of contraception and prevention of HIV/AIDS.
The newly-produced condoms will be distributed through Swiss schools in a package with materials on AIDS. They will also be made available for sale, with a box of 6 condoms costing about $7.

Moral values as we knew them,are caving in.Children are literally bomarded with explicite content over the mass media and internet.Instead of preventing such content of surfacing in the first place - with all means necessary,we rather go along with it.Sexual Revolution is taking its tool...Today,it's absolutely "normal" to be gay or whatever.Teenage girls are getting body-pierced or taking a plastic surgery,just because their "idols" from TV screens are doing it too.And so on...This world is up to its neck in sin.Egoism and hedonism has became the models of living.And we tolerate it by turning our heads the other way,instead of making a stand.
I took 1 st mortgage loans when I was a teenager and this aided my business very much. However, I require the sba loan also.
