Just to clarify again, I know religion cannot be separated, but I asked not to bring religion in it because there’s no point of mentioning something that we already (should) know.
And another clarification: When I asked not to bring religion into this discussion and I said that “parents should talk with children”, that does not mean that parents should be accepting premarital sex as something “okay”. That “talk” can include ANYTHING; from “don’t mix with the opposite gender because our religion doesn’t allow it” to “unsafe sex can cause STDs” to “premerital sex is enjoyment for a few minutes but could turn into a lifetime responsibility” to anything that parents want to talk to their children about. **But that point is that parents SHOULD have “the talk” and just because we provide sex ed to our kids, that doesn’t mean that we are accepting the act. **In my opinion, sex ed in school HELPS because if you keep telling kids “don’t do it because religion says so”, some kids may still do it. But if you show them pictures of diseases, they may have to think twice before doing something like this.
Hope this explains why I didn’t want to discuss religion.
