My parents provided me the old traditional lecture about the birds and the trees. In which, how nature takes it role to produce offspring’s for different species and how humanity plays the same roles. The mention of morality, values and waiting until you get married would be the correct choice. Also, my sex education didn’t stop after high school and continued on during my tenure in the military with our mandatory annual POSH training that covers sex and our responsibilities as a soldier in the United States Army. If I had the choice to go back and change anything about what I learned about sex I would change the peer group philosophy about what I was led to believe about sex and relationship values between men and women.
Parents teach their kids to walk, to talk and good manners, which is all beneficial to a child. However, when it comes to teaching a child about sex, most parents tends to feel uncomfortable. Feeling uncomfortable does not change the fact that kids are maturing faster and they need the education to help them make decisions which will prevent them from making bad choices. For parents who tends to feel this way, sex Ed curriculum will be beneficial to both parents and children. The information kids gained will not only teach them about their genitalia, also about inappropriate touching, STD’s and early pregnancy.
Education is a virtue in our society. The growth and development of a successful civilization depends on an educated populace. Schools were created to serve this purpose, to educate the youth and prepare them for their professional and personal lives in the future. However, while we do learn mathematics, history, literature, and art – all of which are important skills and subjects – the real importance of school lies on a different spectrum. The most important lesson that schools teach children is the truth about society and the real world.
Many adults think that it would promote sex before marriage and many kids do not want to sit through a class about sex. But however awkward it will be to sit through a sex ed. class, it would probably be more awkward to have to tell your parents that you’re pregnant at age sixteen or to tell your partner that you have an STD. Comprehensive sex education programs, like those run by Planned Parenthood, are so incredibly important because it gives teens the life skills to make healthy choices about sex. That means waiting longer before having sex, and practicing safe sex when you do have
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).
The educational Sex Ed by Anna Quindlen was a discussion on the need for sex education among teenagers and the involvement of the parents in the education of
For Goodness Sex, by Al Vernacchio, is a welcome relief from the two previous books; Girls & Sex and Man Interrupted, as the focus is about sexuality as a whole; gender, sexual orientation, etc., rather than on the culture of females and males. In a chapter titled “Gender Myths,” Vernacchio (2014) asks the question, “male and female, is that all there is” (Vernacchio, A., p. 112, 2014)? In teaching his class on Sexuality and Society, Vernacchio asks these questions and questions similar, demonstrating that he takes into consideration that there are feelings at stake and keeps in mind the human aspect of sex and sexuality as he is intentionally behind challenging students to foresee and develop their sense of values about sex, instead of constantly being “in the moment.”
In the Brave New World sexual conditioning is a main element. Through out the book there are many incidents were sex is a subject. In the "Other Place" sex is a used as a way to pass time and to relieve themselves of tension. Multiple sexual partners are a very common occurrence and being monogamous is frowned upon. However, sex is sacred and a private manner within the Reservation.
NEED AND SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY High School, the Secondary level of education is facing very harsh problems. The personality, attitude, emotional stability, morale, commitment towards work of a teacher determines the quality of education. The Secondary Education Commission (1952) rightly points out "We are convinced that the most important factor in the contemplated educational reconstruction is the teacher, his personal qualities, his educational qualifications, his professional training and the place that he occupies in the school as well as in the community. Reports of Kothari Commission (1964) says that “Of all the different factors which influence the quality of education and its contribution to national development, the quality, competence, and character of teachers are undoubtedly the most significant”. This statement reiterates the importance of teachers and their attitudes.

Co-ed schools versus single-sex schools: which will provide a better learning experience for students? The debate over whether or not the genders should be separated in the classroom still stands today. In a society where both men and women have to work together harmoniously, a co-ed education initially seems to be the more viable option since it prepares students for real-world experiences. Although every student has different learning styles, a student would, however, ultimately benefit from the tailored curriculum and comfort of a single-sex educational environment. Students will have a more relaxed learning experience without distractions from the opposite gender.
There are mixed reviews about the choice of Planned Parenthood. They have eight million activists, supporters, and donors nationwide (Who We Are, 2014). However, some people still have an issue with how strongly Planned Parenthood support contraception, or abortion. They believe that every woman should have access to the full range reproductive health care services, including access to and legal abortions (Our Issues: Where We Stand, 2015). It will forever be a controversial issue within the views of abortions, but as a social worker, realistically, we have to accept the fact that abortions could be an option for the clients we are seeing.
The famous line from the classic 2000’s film Mean Girls, “Don 't have sex, because you will get pregnant and die!” mirrors the current state of sex education in America. Right now, only 24 US states mandate sex education, and the majority are abstinence only, as opposed to a comprehensive program. There are critical differences between comprehensive and abstinence-only sex education. Comprehensive sex ed provides age appropriate information about abstinence, contraceptives, reproductive choice, various sexualities, relationships and puberty.
Education is necessary for all students. It is a tool which can be used to enhance one's learning and to provide students with experiences inside the classroom to prepare them for later in their life. Teachers are an indispensable figure in the classroom and are called as leaders of the next generation. Everything done in the classroom helps develop children into the citizens they will become. It is essential to understand that students have difference in need, ability, and success rate, but they are all special in their own way.
