Question 5
I think no matter the area or situation of the school, sex education should be enforced at school. I know from experience that parents don't talk to their kids about this stuff.In my school sex education was taught to us at age 13. We should be all mature by then and not little children giggling about certain body parts.The earlier you are exposed to the real world,the more likely you are prepared to deal with those situations or even avoid them. Certain schools avoid to teach sex education due to fundings and parents views on them. Some parents believe its not the schools role to teach the child and are too young to be learning those things. I believe with out sex ed, teen pregnancy would increase and the spread of STD's would also increase. Not everything in sex ed should be what not to do and what to do,but it should also include real facts about sex and give you insight on the real world. Sex ed is not intended to scare the child and prevent them from having sex,but give the child guidelines on safe sex and the do's and don't of safe sex. I would support and encourage sex ed in schools, its sad to see a teens life ruin from one bad decision.
Good points about giving children real facts about sex and actually showing them what it's all about. I agree with you that sex education should be taught in schools just to inform students. Many parents don't explain to their children what it is all about and many are curious so this would be a good idea.
