Class: AE4- Bbus 7.5 TOPIC: Some people think that early sex education for Vietnamese children is important, while others are against this idea due to its drawbacks. Mention the idea’s status, discuss both views and give your opinion.

One of the most notable problems nowadays relates to children who are delivered gender lessons at infancy. It is not difficult to believe that young kids all have to listen to lectures on how to tackle situations that are supposed of mature context. This essay will endeavor to diagnose this issue from both aspects. In accordance with the Darkness to Light web, “Of children who are sexually abused, 20% are abused before the age of 8.” It is apparent that the child sexual harassment is a widespread issue and the figure of children getting involved in these detrimental cases has flourished in recent years. Especially, in developing countries, where sex education is still disregarded, including Vietnam. As Thang Long, graduating from Le Hong Phong High School in Ho Chi Minh City said, “There isn’t any official sex education in our country.” (worldyouthnews.org) “Teenagers criticize lack of sex education”, written by Thuy Nguyen on worldyouthnews.org in 2007 showed: 28.8 percent of Vietnamese teenagers don’t know how to protect themselves against sexually transmitted diseases. Half of the HIV infections in Vietnam involve people under 25.

    The lack of sexual education also contributes to young marriage and motherhood rates (Ngo & Leet-Otley, 2011). Hmong parents do not understand sexual education and do not discuss it with their children. In Meschke and Dettmer’s (2013) study on sexual health communication, Hmong daughters inferred that parents believed the talk about sexual health might encourage their daughters to be sexually active. Talking about sex is impolite and embarrassing so Hmong families do not usually have discussions on that topic. However, when they do give out information it is often wrong and exaggerated (Meschke & Dettmer, 2012).

A family structure acts as the most important agent of gender socialization for children and adolescents as it serves as the centre of a child’s life.

People started having sex earlier and getting married later, and that gap continues to grow as time goes on (Source A). Source G confirms that about 47% of American high schoolers are already having sex. This statistic, no matter how much it rises or falls, proves that there will always be sexually active students that require information on how to do so safely.
