Sex Education should be taught in schools at the ripe age of adolescence.
Until now, in some places, sex is still considered as a taboo. Thus, a lot of teens are afraid and embarrassed to seek guidance and help when it comes to this topic. Hence, teenage pregnancy and spread of STDs and HIV became common, especially in conservative countries such as Philippines. With the rising numbers of pregnant teens and people infected by sexually transmitted diseases, the government, schools, and parents must take it seriously and act urgently. The first step in overcoming this issue is to be educated. By the help of trusted online organizations and reliable sources in the internet we can have access to information and people that will help us to learn and communicate are feelings and worries. I hope in the near future it can be taught in schools so that it can be accessible to everyone and we can minimize the spread of STDs and HIV and the increasing numbers of teenage pregnancy.
