As a teenager in high school myself, i do indeed believe that sexual education should be a mandatory course in health or physical education classes. As someone who does not believe in sex before marriage, i know that others do, and many of my friends are not virgins, and i know some girls in my school are either pregnant, or have had an abortion. If they knew better and were educated more clearly, it could help prevent this. We were not offered sex-ed up until this year and I do know some girls who have stopped being sexual active with their boyfriends because now they know the cold hard facts. So all in all, i do think that sexual education should be in all school across america.

Yes. 46% of all high schoolers aren’t virgins by their own admission. Not teaching them all the facts is robbing them of a thorough education since only 5% of Americans are virgins when they marry, which is what the alternative tries to promote They need information about protection. If you teach comprehensive sex education and stress the importance of condoms, then more students will use condoms and prevent accidental pregnancy. It could hep the condom and birth control makers in America, but wouldn’t have far reaching implications as the economy goes.

Yes, but I don’t think it will solve the problem of accidental pregnancy and economy troubles. People choose what they want to do in the end. Sex Ed is sorta influential, but people don’t even pay attention in that class or they think it’s funny. It’s more of a lack in morality. I was in a particular sex ed class(with both boys and girls in it *stupid idea*) during which boys and girls began to make plans for meeting one another for sex(the teacher wasn’t even paying attention). California actually encourages sex to children is schools of all ages from kindergarten to your senior high school year. So it won’t prevent any issues just maybe influence a few people if sex ed worked we would be in a lot better shape by now

Marisamo, your avatar looks very worried. Have you already done something you shouldn’t have? Young people need all the info they can get. Std’s, unwanted pregnancy, aids, not to mention the emotional trauma that can develop form having sex when you are to young are some of the things that definitely should be addressed .

recent studies show that teens that have not had sex ed are 43% more likely to get pregnant, so I would say that you should have sex ed because it dose not stop teens from having sex by not talking about it in schools the same things will happen but it will be safe!
yeah I should be best anwser

yes i do believe that sex ed should be mandatory in high schools.If i would have know all the stuff i do now before i started having sex,I would have waited.All teens should know what is out there.some parents may not agree with it ,but it is better to be safe then sorry.

Acualy most skools are alredy making it manditory to were you have to take the class unless their is a religouse reson but its not like they wont find out before hand anyway but it is a good idea to teach them about Sti stds you know th works hope this helped

yes it could. this economy could use SexEd. Not that everyone would follow the rules said in the class, one semester of learning how to avoid future problems is a good idea.

Yes it should be taught in high school but I think that parents need to step up and address the issue with their kids as well instead of just relying solely on the school.

No, because children are immature for a sexual relationship so it pretty much sucks for them if something goes wrong.
May 10, 2009 @ 6:31 am
yes it should be taught. because then kids learn how easy it is to get a STD and they might back off on sex.
