Raise your hand, how many people think young people have sex?
Keep your hand up if you think sex leads to unwanted pregnancy and/or sexually transmitted diseases?
No brainers, right?
So the real question becomes who should provide sex education to young people?
Most people probably think that ideally it should be the young person’s parents. But, we all know that does not happen all that often.
If not the parents, who?
How about the schools?
Problem there is not all parents want their children taking sex education in school.
How about opt-in sex education at schools? Parents must provide a signed approval form for their child to take sex education. The children who do not have parental permission would be given either another class or study hall.
