Do you think Sex Education should be taught in school

August 9, 2026 5:35pm CST
Have you ever used a mobile mechanic? Woops wrong post Seriously. Do you think sex education should be taught at school? I personally do. I can't imagine some parents I know who know very much about it or indeed anything else. - so let the school do it. And as long as they teach about love etc and self respect let them teach it Teach boys that misogyny is wrong What age should they start teaching it? Well, 13 is way too late So start teaching it in elementary school , gradually , Everything about it, teach it properly and sensibly Maybe if we all do that there will be less teenage pregnancies and less heartbreak I couldnt teach it though, could you?

Several years ago there's a huge debate whether it should be taught in schools here and at what appropriate age. But, church got in the way.

@Ineeddentures We are a catholic country and the archbishop has a lot of influence even over our president.

Oh dear. Thankfully the Church is not permitted to interfere with our schools or educational Policy And what is taught, and how.

@toniganzon Your president should read the stuff in that link and tell the archbishop to be quiet

Yes it should be taught. Then you wouldn't have teenagers popping out babies simply because their parents don't believe in birth control or self-control.

Yes it should be taught in 5th grade. That is when they taught it when my kids went to school.

I think they start teaching it here in junior high school, but I could be wrong. Yes, it should be taught in schools, but that doesn’t excuse parents from sitting down with their kids and having these discussions.

@Ineeddentures well, it’s the responsibility of the parents, not the school, to prevent their kids from doing what they shouldn’t be doing.

You must be joking Some of these kids were only created because the father got it wrong

I don't think it's necessary Our forefathers didn't have it, yet they had a happy married life.

@Ineeddentures I know. It happens there and, so far as I know, in our country as well. But in our town there is no such case. In cities parents have no time to talk to their children. This is the main reason behind the problem.

@Shivram59 Well judging by the number of young teen girls getting pregnant it seems that boys and girls all over the world clearly do need educated, as they don't get the education at home

Yes, absolutely, it is important. Teenagers must know everything before they create problems. Parents often lie or tell the most stupid stories.

With some of these issues, way too much information is given to little kids. If it's done properly, it would be a great thing.

It should be but it's such a sensitive matter in our society. Perhaps teachers should be very well trained to teach the subject.
