On the Job with Rob!

Gerald Kostecka, a nationally recognized authority on children's and parenting issues, was recently invited to Hollywood, Ca to be a guest panelist on the Rob Nelson Show, where he was put on the "Hot Seat".  The topic for this show was the ever growing problem of teen and pre-teen sexuality and sexual experimentation.  The "town-meeting" style discussion featured the views of a few hundred local Hollywood teens and parents.  Things were pretty tame until Gerald fired up the crowd by voicing his views of parental responsibility for teaching children about sex at an early age and that, with proper instruction, teens can make an educated decision about when to start having sex, which Gerald believes, at the earliest, should not be until the child has reached the age of legal consent and is no longer a child.

The show airs on December 12, 2002. Check your local listing for station and times.

	Gerald traveled to Hollywood, CA and arrived at the KTLA Studios, formerly original home of the Warner Bros Studios, for the show taping.  Entering the studio was like taking a trip back through time, a place where you can visit a living part of television history.
About The Show                                                           Rob Nelson has often been called the Phil Donahue of Generation X because he pushed for answers with genuine sensitivity.   Rob is not afraid of conflict or controversy and challenges his viewers to look at themselves and think.  The Rob Nelson show is a multi-topic talk show that has been described as "in-your-face talk."  The show is a platform for Rob and his guests to discuss the issues affecting society and talk about ways to solve them.   The show, which airs weekdays on mostly FOX affiliates, generally opens with Rob talking about the the topics and follows to a taped package from the field.  Each show features two topics, which are usually unrelated.  When the show premiered, it was cleared in 181 stations, covering 94 percent of the country.  (Courtesy: www.wb16.com)
