RE: [MTC Global] [Year End Big Debate] Teaching sex in classrooms generate unnecessary curiosity among children

I think personal hygiene ( specially for a girl after she enter puberty) , consequences of any sexual activity before appropriate age and awareness about sexual advances and how to stay away need to be taught to adolescents. Other aspects of sex should be learned by the going to be bride and groom with the help of their family gynecologist prior to marriage.

Subject: [MTC Global] [Year End Big Debate] Teaching sex in classrooms generate unnecessary curiosity among children

 

"Teaching sex in classrooms generate unnecessary curiosity among children. Schools can rather have counselling cells to address issues like stress, sexuality, etc. This will also bail out teachers who feel uncomfortable teaching this subject," Kothari says.

"We believe that education must incorporate three basic principles - culture, nature and development. Education must not only offer livelihood but also a vision for life and society, which our current education policy lacks. We have also forgotten ancient Indian knowledge. That's why we want Vedic Maths to be taught in schools in place of Sex Education ," says Kothari, Shiksha Bachao Andolan (SBA) 

At present, Central Board of School Education's (CBSE) biology texts for the eight standard and above have chapters on sex education, under the 'Adolescence and Reproductive Sexual Health Programme'. It covers issues related to nutrition, health, hygiene, physical fitness and mental health besides drug abuse, reproductive and sexual health and HIV-AIDS.
