This title provides a comprehensive look at sex education, current research and practice, programmes, politics, legislation, and cultural as well as religious issues. Most adults easily agree on what is not healthy for teenagers, including unintended pregnancy, sexual abuse, and sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV/AIDS. But the question of what approach is best to help young people avoid these negative outcomes is a topic of great dissension. Millions of federal funds in the U.S. are being spent insuring that school systems teach just abstinence-only programs, with the singular lesson: avoid all sexual activity outside of marriage because it is likely to have harmful physical and psychological effects. Opponents of this approach - who support comprehensive sexuality education taught at schools - maintain that whether or not adults agree with young people's actions, the facts cannot be ignored that millions of youths are involved in sexual activity and the 'just say no' approach does not work. In these groundbreaking volumes, the history, practices, and politics of sexuality education are explained. Readers will learn how and why the need to formally teach students about sexuality and its risks arose, and how the abstinence-only movement as well as comprehensive sexuality education developed. Respected educators, counsellors, and therapists in these volumes give insights into exactly what is meant by 'sex education', what the various approaches are, what 'age appropriate' lessons are supported by most professionals, and the impact of government policies. This unique set also describes sexuality education in terms of how it has expanded to serve not only youth, but also adults, from new parents to senior citizens. Further, experts present sexuality education in other countries, their victories and challenges over unplanned pregnancy and STDs, in the global efforts to preserve sexual health.
