At what age do you think sex education should begin for young people and why? Remember to use your own photos
Sex education is very important in the life of children, it is a time to educate them and create awareness about their body, what to expect and what to see and how to say no to a boy anywhere they she finds her self same applies to boys.
Sex education is not only for a girl child, a boy child needs it as well, but in this part of the world much attention is given to girls than boys.
With proper sex education in the home, most of the rape cases we now have will be very far off from the society, the molestation and homosexuality will stop.
While growing up, my parents were not the kind of people to teach their children about sex education rather when we grow to a certain level were we started seeing puberty, my mum and aunties will be telling us that if anyone touch our breast we will get pregnant. I'm using the plural form of it because we are 5 girls in our family and sincerely speaking we have had our own share of mistakes because we lack this sex education teaching right from early puberty so we ended up making careless mistakes.
I can still remember while in school, I couldn't communicate well with boys because of fear of them touching my breast for me to get pregnant though I didn't even understand what pregnancy means but one thing I knew was that I stayed far away from boys and worst come to worst when girls who have been seriously exposed to sex education the bad way discussed and tried to lure you into it. Some will even introduced me to their boyfriend's friend and I had to have a boyfriend in my secondary school though sex wasn't involved but having male friend wasn't part of the deal.
Before worst could come to worst, with the kind of father that I had, a disciplinarian who doesn't listen to excuses, when once he got you with anyone sorry for your self and that person because your story will change, the fear alone restricted us from associating.
Sex education to me should start right from when the child knows how to talk well. Yes it should start that's is from 3 -4 years now the child know right from wrong and can report any incident that happens to the mother so now is the time to teach them. Me like this ehn, I have start teaching my girls o, they need to learn very fast so no body mess up with them and I am looking at a mother daughter and son relationship that is like best friend to best friend not a high God mother and daughter so she will be able to communicate well with me.
With this the child will not be easily tossed outside the home and their friends cannot easily influence them no matter what and they will learn to say NO and stand by it firmly without compromising this I know and I will teach them to know too and do it.
I am a mother and I think sex education should start early from 4 years.
