Sex Education Materials

 On Tuesday, April 2, 2013 one of my classmates posted an article called “Unplanned Parenthood” and it talks about a bill that “prohibits school districts from using sex education materials that are provided by any organization that are affiliated with abortion providers.” Parents have the right to review this material and also to withdraw their children “from participating in sex education if they so choose to.” These courses will, in my opinion help students to really appreciate what “building a family” is and not just going around and have kids like if it was a game. Parents can also take classes to learn how to talk with their children about this “awkward conversation.”

“Hopefully in the next twenty years we will see a continual decline in pregnancies among teens with the help of programs like sex education and Planned Parenthood. It is clear that these programs do not encourage sex, but give teens education and options on how to prevent unwanted pregnancies.” I agree with my classmate, I hope teens open their eyes and see the reality, because not all of them are going to take this as something “serious” some of them just don’t care, and that’s the problem. Parents should totally agree with schools so that students can be thought these courses because if they refuse to talk to them about sex then who else will do it?
