Guttmacher Institute determined through research that STD rates drop in areas where sex education is taught.
With that in mind, why do we hear about more and more teens having kids of their own?
In my opinion, not enough schools teach sex education. There is the debate whether it should be taught or not. A school's purpose is to provide an education and prepare for the future.
Students are often offered courses in money management, home economics, family living.. why not sex education?
They all help prepare for your future.
Even schools that provide sex ed typically start by talking about the body changes in 4th grade and in 6th grade move to STD's.
Schools need to consider how in today's world, teens are having sex at much younger ages. Thus, they need to be educated sooner.
Join in on the debate. What do you think?
