Issue 18 Abstinence and Edu

Whether or not the school only teaches abstinence until marriage or other messages about sexuality and contraception there needs to be messages be taught to kids. To me this issue of only having one message and thats abstinence is kind of wrong but also I see why they would just want to teach that one message. The reason why it is wrong the way they teach it is because the dont really go in depth with it and why we should wait. This is just my personal experience with sex education I had when they were teaching us. Most of the time if you tell kids what they shouldn't do they are going to end up experiencing it for themselves any way. The message should also be taught how to have safe sex as well. But implying this means it is okay to have sex with whoever you want with totally goes against my beliefs but thats another story in its own.
The real problem here is this education should not only be taught in the schools but at home with the parents. The parents should raise their kids with valuable information about this issue more than he school. I know i wont be a perfect parent but i will try my best to raise my kids to what the bible says i know most people are disgusted or don't care for what it is says but the bible has the absolute truth about every situation take a look for your self if u don't want to take my word for it. i will let my children choose the course they want to go but i will try ti instill truth in them also if not with the bible just with stats and things that are happening with people who abstain from sex or are practicing. the school i think just need to go more in depth with information and helping students understand.

1) Are schools now a days spending more time on this subject teaching it better then, when i was in school ?

  1. That's a good question and i was wondering the same thing- I would like to sit in on a class and see how much it has changed since I was in school.

  2. Yeah I would like to know what kinds of messages teens are getting from their parents and teachers these days. Are they told what to do or given a choice?
