I think so. Alot of parents aren't teaching their children about sex, and STD's. They have to learn it somewhere so they will get accurate information. I don't think however, that the children should be learning it in kindergarten like some people are suggesting. When I was in school, I think we started sex ed in 5th or 6th grade. Probably because that's when the majority were starting puberty. These days, most kids know alot more at that age. So maybe they should begin learning about their bodies in 3rd or 4th grade.
While I don't think sex ed should be a vital part of any child's curriculum, parents today certainly shirk that responsibility and sadly (i.e., teachers, etc.) are left holding the bag. Unfortunately, I'd have to say I think it's necessary.
No because its a natural thing that's built in to you're DNA. It should be called sex control class!
It is absolutely necessary. As a high school junior, I know that a lot of parents feel extremely uncomfortable talking with their kids about sex... honestly, there are some kids who learn everything from sex ed, things like how to prevent pregnancy and about STDs. These things are SO important for teenagers to know... even if there are kids who know about this stuff, isn't it worth it to teach sex ed for those who don't?
Yes, it is. The youngsters should be educated in sex, otherwise they may be misguided by the pornographic books and films by the influence of friends who does not have any idea about this.
I believe so... after all, your ultimate goal is to help young minds become well -rounded informed human beings. While it probably won't be a factor in their future occupations... it certainly will be an invaluable tool down the road as they become partners and parents.
A quote from "Mr. Holland's Opus" :
The purpose of a teacher is to fill young minds with knowledge; yes. But it is also to act as a compass for that knowledge. We might fill their minds with knowledge; but as a compass -- we seem to have become stuck! (slight paraphrase)

i think sex ed needs to be a part of the curriculum in some way... alot of kids dont get the sex ed at home so they need it some where that is why we have so many teenage pregnant girls
