wanted to get a general overview of what children are learning in school as far as sex ed is concerned. check what you learned in school against the following facts to kind of see how accurate your teaching was.
1- HPV can cause cervical cancer and can be prevented by a vaccine 2- condoms will reduce the rate to transmission of most STDs. 3- birth control pills and pills such as the morning after pill do not protect any against STDs, but will help protect against pregnancy. 4- the first time a female has sex/ uses a large tampon, her hymen will break which will cause bleeding. |

I didn't have Sex Ed as an actual class, but it was tied in with Health. First time was in 7th grade, or maybe it was 8th; I can't remember. Despite the immaturity of the class (giggling, etc), everything was explained quite well.
11th grade: All forms of birth control and protection were discussed; we even had an abortion debate at one point. We were also shown pictures of STD infections. That's one way to get a bunch of teenagers to use protection or practice abstinence-- show them what a raging case of herpies looks like..... |
