When should you start discussing sex with your child? It may be earlier than you think: It starts with consent.
Despite consistent messaging ‘we all have a role to play’ when it comes to stopping violence against women, actual guidance on what parents should do can be difficult to find.
Research shows schools worry parents will revolt if there is too much detail in sex education classes. A new survey asks what Australian parents actually think and want.
Hasil dari studi awal yang kami lakukan membantah anggapan bahwa orang tua di Indonesia adalah hambatan unntuk mewujudkan pendidikan kesehatan seksual di sekolah.
Results from our preliminary study strongly challenge the assumption that Indonesian parents are barriers to the delivery of school-based sexual health education.
Sexual negotiation can be a difficult process. It’s about reading body language as well as verbal cues, and respecting the wants and needs of your partner. Schools need to teach it early and often.
Australia’s relationships and sex education often fails to support the personal and social development of young people.
