I just don't think people realise the effect that small things can have on self esteem at such an early age. I've seen kids upset by being told to have low expectations by the adults in their life even with it's "normal" low expectations. Even if someone does go on to achieve, the memory that "My school told me I should be a hooker" will stick with a person.

Also, even looking at the high end sex trade in a more positive light - because there are higher-priced prostitutes / escorts who do GENUINELY love their work and lifestyle - that is surely an aspect of more advanced / open sexuality that someone wouldn't even be THINKING about until their mid 20's or beyond? I'd be sort of worried if any teenager was already at that stage of sexual development... they should be at the stage of a bit of experimentation / an awkward fumble at most. How can they possibly know or even guess at what their adult sexuality will look like?
