Sex Education: The Importance Of Sexual Education For Children

In Malaysia, teen pregnancy cases have increased over the past few years due to lack of knowledge about sex education. Most people are not willing to take responsibility of being a parent as it is one of the hardest tasks to take on. Many teenagers tend to have sex before they get married and some of them do not take proper precautions before they have sexual involvement. Therefore, teenage pregnancy issues have become more and more common in the world.
