The controversy of sex education

Opinios about teaching sex education in schools are divided. While the Centres for Disease Control recommends teaching about comprehensive sex education in schools, others remain unconvinced.

Many students, even when schools require a sex education class, learn only about reproduction or the consequences of sex or relationships. They should be taught about contraceptives and safe sex in general. The school teach only the biological aspects of sex rather than the results of teen pregnancy, teen dating violence, the benefits of abstinence and personal health. The reason why true sex education is avoided may be stigmatised nature, religion or old-fashion thinking.

The only exception to sex education requirements are private schools especially religious ones. Also for certain kinds of sex education parent can request their child not to attend the class. But some students as well claim that their parents, not school, should decide about their kids attending sex education class, because they may be simply not comfortable talking about it.

They key idea to keep students safe is to introduce sex education is to introduce sex education to younger people as it becomes more relevant. If people would be taught sex education in lower classes they would be more comfortable talking about it in the future. 

Many teachers think that by teaching students how to have sex and how to do it safely it encourages students to do it in a way. Also parents may be upset at the schools about opening their children’s mind to sex. Still, schools should be responsible for providing sex education to younger kinds. Many teenagers have an uncomfortable relation with their families and my be uncomfortable talking about sex. That is why school should teach it in a proper, authentic and objective way.
