  5. Yes i think sex education should be taught in school because some kids dont have parents at home to teach them the right way to take care of themselves and prevent diseases and stuff.

  6. yes sex education should be taught in the classroom. there is no such thing as too much education be it class or at home.
    I dont think this would prevent sex but education could definitely help decrease the numbers in std's and pregnancies.
