Do you think sex education for children/teenagers encourages sexual activity?
Well you tell me what is different now from 50 years ago when teenagers were not having sex at 13? Yes we educate them more about sex, and this is definately part of the reason. Another reason is that promisuity is now, wrongly in my opinion, generally not frowned upon, and those that do have sex often, even at that age, are championed as if they have something to be proud of. So if we tell youngsters how to have sex and things like that even when they are not mature enough to understand the possible consequences ( children, infection, etc) then i think that in itself is a problem. I also think their promisuity is down to their parents handling of the childs childhood. If they are taught proper morals and live in a safe, secure home, it is my opinion that they will have a much more mature attitude to sex than many others. I understand it may be difficult for some to implement this, but in my opinion, raising of children should be the most important thing, regardless of what else is goi
