Sex education… a slippery slope Sex education in schools is a hotly debated topic between government, school administrators, teachers and parents. It appears that the goal of this course is not only to teach students about biological sex, but also about personal choices. The course is usually structured in a two-day format and has little to no follow-up regarding student understanding. Sex education in schools often offends students' morals and religious beliefs, often omits biological truths, lacks emphasis on the emotional and psychological aspect of being sexually active, and is believed to be an intrusion into the parent-child relationship . public schools intersect with many moral and religious beliefs. The majority of Christians around the world perceive sexuality in the context of human dignity, family and marriage (BBC Religious Studies 1). “No comprehensive sex education course encourages adolescents to delay having sex until at least high school, much less wait until marriage” (“Comprehensive Sex Education” 1). Sex education in schools does not teach: “Genital sex is an expression of intimacy, not the means to achieve intimacy. … True intimacy is not primarily a sexual encounter. Intimacy... has almost nothing to do with our sexual organs. A prostitute may expose her body, but her relationships are not intimate at all (Focus on the family”2-3). Part of the population is ready to argue that not all students are of Christian persuasion; however, most religions uphold the same values, so the current curriculum excludes large portions of the student population. Families have their own individual beliefs about morals and their children. [the church's] program… [The] first month of the… program, we focus on adults and their needs… By offering sex education in the church, we can address the needs of the entire family” (Question of Faith 5). By following this program, parents could be taught how to educate their children in sexuality, spirituality and morality according to their own values ​​and beliefs. Sex education in schools often offends both parents and students for various reasons such as; moral and religious beliefs. Often, according to families, the teaching of this personal topic should be left within the family. This is a problem that will likely not be solved in the foreseeable future without a concentrated effort on the part of schools, teachers and students.
