Misinformed how? It's not as if abstinence-only education claims babies come by stork.

It often claims things like condoms being ineffective against STDs or all sorts of birth control having far greater failure rates than in reality.

I was also taught: never carry a condom, because then you might be tempted to have sex. Instead of understanding that it's going to happen anyway, they teach that it shouldn't happen, so don't prepare for it.

Misinformed because they don't inform the kids about birth control. It's a sin of omission
