Should Sex-Education be given in schools or be it da responsibility of parents ??

Both ! It shud definitely com 4m parents, bt at da same tym since most f da parents don’t make enough efforts wid der kids ,may b due 2 conservativeness, it must b taught. If it wasn’t taught at all, I m sure da der wud b even more STD’s n teenage pregnancies. According 2 Rasmussen reports, 80% of da adults still say children shud b taught sex (don’t tak it othrwse) by parents rather thn schools, 11% feel dat its da responsibility f da school while 8% wer in a dilemma, whch side 2 go.

Besides da most effective channel for sex-education cn b media & particularly TV, films n magazines; bt our social customs and conservativeness may nt permit fo it. One f da -ve aspects f givin dis type f education is dat if taught young high school & senior secondary school kids may indulge in its practice bt taking it +vely, if nt taught it may giv rise 2 STD’s whch wl endanger our future generations as da doctorial science says STD’s cn b transferred 4m parents 2 da offsprings.

It is nt only da responsibility bt da right f da parents. Bt I don kn why don’t v cm out f dis bulshit , dis conservative barrier n da long-term practice f nt talking n discussing dis topic @ home. Many school boards argue dat der r families, especially in urban schools wher da child isn’t informed & is in a danger f unprotected sex and pregnancy. So, it must b taught. Though der wer efforts made by a school BOARD by including sm f da chapters in da school buks bt da reslt ws as expected. Our social conservativeness cam in2 being 1ce agn. There ws a big protest in Uttar Pradesh regarding it. Ultimately da board had 2 withdraw those chapters 4m da curriculum. Our conserv-attitude is 1 f grtst hindrances 2wrds giving such education. I think parents must tak it as a part f education besides thkg smthg else.

Howevr, der r sm parents hu r comg out f dis social barrier n our long term practice f nt talking bout dis at home. While browsing da responses f sm f da parents regarding dis topic, I found different opinions. Though sm cmpletly opposed it, yet der wer a few hu favourd it. One f da parents said dat he wud care less if da school teaches his daughter bout it, he wud himself plan 2 talk 2 his kids. Der ws notha guy hu said dat during da mid 70’s dy wer 1 f da 1st to gt dis “education” n whn his kids wer exposed 2 it, he ws v much involved in da subject matter.

Statistics show da teen pregnancy rate in US is 22 per 1000 while in India, in 2007, 375 million people wer suffering 4m STD’s out f whch 6% wer TeenAgers. Hence, der is an emerging need 2 include dis subject matter in da academic curriculum coz besides da danger f teenage pregnancies & STD’s, der r other emerging issues like Sex Related VIOLENCE spreading its wings quite rapidly in our society.

I personally belev dat da young senior secondary school/high school stdnts shud b taught bout sex by der contemporaries, wher a much older stdnt whom da younger boys & gals respected, gave dm advice and an insight into wat 2 expect as dy sexually mature.
