[Digi]

yes i think sex education should be given to students

[jack_richards232005]

yes i believe that sex edu should be made compulsory. this really improves your perspective on sex and help to overcome many problems.

[hemant.k008]

Yaa.. Its really necessary to educate children abt sex.. We had these types to seminars in our school of 10-15 min since 8th Std..It really helped us to understand some important fact that we didnt knew..
And also it clears some misconceptions that usualy prevails in mind..
Student should b educated...and its High Time that students should be told abt Bees- Flowers..

[jainminit]

yes it is a must

[akshay_khosla]

sex education should be made compulsory and also it should be seen that sensitive topics like aids and others should be made clear at a early stage

[ross18]

Yes Sex Education should be Made Compulsary in Schools.

Because,

Schools have an important role to play in their capability to impart effective sex education to adolescents. Research reports have shown that when imparted sex education to these young adults in schools it is possible to push back the age at which these children may
experiment with sex. These programs also have the potential to encourage these youngsters to use a condom during their first sexual experience.

However, although schools in the cities and suburbs of India are coming up with innovative health and hygiene workshops that deal with issues like health foods and usage of sanitary napkins, the introduction of comprehensive sex education in schools on a regular basis still remains an subject that principles and the teachers think will bring in a raging controversy surrounding them. The schools and the existing education system in India seemed to be very much biased against conducting such workshops and programs within the school premises, even if they happen to accept the idea in principle.

According to WHO the sex education to children ideally should be imparted at the age of 12 years and above. Even if the records say about 34% of the HIV affected persons are in the age group of 12 to 19 years.

[sindhu]

yes i feel it shud be made compulsory after training d teachers to handle d topic responsibly...

[aman206]

yeah its high time our childrens r well informed n guided abt such matters before they enter their youth....

[tush]

yes it must.but at the same time they should see to it the student are not missguided about the whole concept.

[lonelysom]

yes for sure, why not???

[priyaa1]

Yes we should provide sex education right from the school. It would help the girls/boys to know about their biological needs with growing age through proper channels and they can analyse the changes in them in a better way. And this will stop the inquisiteness about the the topic and prevent our youth to go crazy about it and waste their golden period in finding the answers to their sex related queries and so on...But at the same time we need to sit and decide the various levels of providing it in a procedural way with a very healthy atmosphere

[Avinnnnash]

sex education must be tought like just any other subject . teach the school guys its never going to be miss leading . once they come to know about it to a extent they are not going to be always thinking about it .

curiosity kills the cat

take the curiosity away , teach on the subject they will not go behind it

[goelvin]

yeah....sex education should definitely be made compulsory as the kids are aware but do not have proper knowledge....they shud b educated at the right time so as to avoid highly unwanted mishaps...

[deepakraam]

Do you think that today's child are ignorant abt sex?I' afraid not cos they have unrestricted access to internet thru which they learn abt everyting.Moreover,the problm today is nt abt child raping another one but the prblm is abt a child being raped by principal or a teenager.So we need to shift our focus to them.The children are physically,mentally abused.

Only strict rules against the rapists and other kinda of abusers will end this prblm.

[mumbaisach2005]

yes obviously....sex education should be imparted.....though we r late in dat but can come up soon....its necessary to impart education right now....but der r chances of increasin curiosity of oneself....its might be a risk also....

[disha_khetan]

ya its high time young kids should know abt it

[disha_khetan]

since kids do not have proper knowledge abt it they tend to make things worse

[acme2ajax]

yes,,,,it shud be compulsory

[krunal134]

ya i feel so

[saketh4]

Sex education should be compulsory in schools.. but the intorduction should be very important. The topic should be carefully formulated in a positive way. Neither it should not create an unnecessary enthusiasm about sex nor it should not cerate a fierce about sex on children.

[gunjan21]

should sex education be made compulsory in schools??
this is d most hot topic discussed now a days in newspapers.
1.wat r the correct methods of educating young students.
2.how should a teacher make students aware..
yes i think sex education should be given to students in school

[prachee]

yes i think it should be but in a proper method

[pratikbharti]

yes it should be made compulsory.....
but first the teachers should be given the correct method to impart the knowledge to the students.........

[forwardram]

Yes it should be made compulsory.. Today due to the influence of movies and usage of internet, children get easily corrupted.. They should be taught abt sex at an appropriate age else they will be misled

[HEART BREAK KID]

yes i do think it must be made a part of studies of da child... but there's too much of hype made by stupid people......its jus another subject....

[yateeshwahaal]

yes, bcoz these days cases of child molestation are on the rise, one of the [primary reason being that they r unaware of what comes under that, teachers being part of the extended family alongwith parents should impart this education.

[vindicated]

sex education shud b made absolutely ncessar in school

[vindicated]

sex education should be carried out properly
a professional should do it.
girls and boys shud be together durin the counselling
like v had dr. manoj bhatavdekar for a session it was amazing
and it shouldnt be done just 1ce
but shud b carried out till the end
and a suggestions or a query box should be made available where even anonymous questions shud b treated with respect

[sanjaydahar]

Firstly the authority must define what is sex education and give it a better terminology as Indian masses over react to certain terms. And also should come up with a system that benefits all and hurts none and there shoudlnt be any conflicting laws for teachers and policy makers

[sanjaydahar]

btw if someone would have read the headlines of Hindustan times, then they would know what disaster the government as going to create with the kit and how scared teachers were on imparting sex education to children.It involoved blindfolding children and making them touch each others parts and recognise them and teach them in such a way. This is what our HRD ministry proposed to do and the teachers were threetened by political groups, if they went ahead with teaching, they would assure they are arrested.

[born2rule]

as sanjay said this was the point which i wanted to bring out in discussion....the kit introduced by govt. on imparting sex education was terrible..the govt could hv come wid much better ways rather than such obscene method

[Shah Jigna]

yes according to me sex education must be given

[vanilla]

it shud be..atleast in metros & big cities...

[akansha_khare]

first of all it shudnt b so hyped.... weneva u take a child away frm sumthn he is bound to get more attracted towards it... so d key is to be more open about it....

[beone]

yes i believe that sex edu should be made compulsory. this really improves your perspective on sex and help to overcome many problems.

i agree with you but who should give this aducation to students? teachers? i don't belive this would be helpful, maybe some professionals from hospitals etc. should give this education in schools.

[saigopal]

Yes ofcourse its necessary, I completely agree with beone.
In my school days (12th std) we had one seminar given to us on Sex and Aids from a Mission Institution and it was a young woman who was bold enough to teach us about types of sex and positions of sex with pictures. this will help us to have a clear idea of why and what for sex and what are the safety during sex. Hats off to her to give us good information about Aids and Prevention for that also.

this helps younger generation to have a clear picture of what's sex and to be safe from AIDS

Sai

[icecubez]

ross18 said it all, i think ! good goin !

[ankitgokani]

yes even i feel sex education shud be provided in school but at a particular age only......
n also in d right manner..........

[kushaagr]

Yes it should be compulsoryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

[chirag.p.mota]

ya sex education must b imparted to students as the school going children have many misconceptions in their mind about all these things.

[akshayvannery]

i definitely believe that sex ed should be amde compulsary in school. but i remember how uncomfortable we were when askwed to get a signed note from our parents citing their permission for the same. it should be taken by the same teacher who teaches biology, and together for girls and guys, so as not to create an atmosphere of ease. a one-on-one session should be arranged with every student after the seminar to help solve the doubts, if any.
