Schools and sexual education

Young people lack the ability to discuss sexual knowledge with their parents at home; as a result, 93 percent of young people learn about sexuality from school-based sex education services (Winnicott, 4).
Sex education is a necessary course that assists young people in acknowledging their sexual transitions and gaining control over sexual activity.
Sex education is the study of human identity, emotional relationships, romantic habits, age, and abstinence from sexual activities (Winnicott, 2).
Sex education teaches them how to handle and treat themselves, as well as familiarize themselves with their personal experiences. Since the modern society exposes the adolescents to sexual content, failure to teach them on how to behave appropriately will lead them to involve in sexual activities.

Aids and STIs infections and unwanted pregnancies are the major dangers of not educating the adolescents about sexual education

Sex education is an essential curriculum topic that will guide the adolescents in promoting upright behaviors in the society.

Introduction: Attention
(Attention Getter)
Sex education is the instruction regarding issues of human sexuality, their emotional relations, sexual activities, age, and abstinence from sexual activities (Winnicott, 2). Sex education is an essential course that helps the young people in understanding their sexual changes and developing control for sexual involvement.
Establish relevance (Why should we care?)
Young people start become sexually active when they advance to the teen age, and in during this period, they engage in new physical and emotional experiences that make them confused. For this reason, sex education teaches them on how to manage and conduct themselves and helps them to familiarize with their personal experiences
Establish credibility (What qualifies you to talk about this topic?)
Based on a personal experience, it is evident that sexual matters affect most young adults and since the youth are the backbone of our society, they should be guided properly through sexual education to alienate them from immoral sexual behaviors.
