Teenager Sex Education

This morning as I drove my children to school, I heard this week’s “Edu-talk show” on the air. The topic was “The teenagers’ sexual issue”. It reviewed an alarming statistics.

In recent survey to local secondary schools (I didn’t catch how many of them), they found that:

13% teenager students are sexual active
4% of them who do not use any contraceptive measures....

The main show carried on talking on how to make “sex education” more effective, in other word, how to teach more students to use more contraceptive measures. When asked why the students are more liberal and opened minded towards teenager sex, one of students in discuss panel answered: “The media influence”.

How true it is. The bombarded, massive “media influence” on TV, movie, computer game and internet has subtly disarmed our moral standard in our society. Teenager sex is no longer viewed as moral disgrace, but accepted as a life style. The lust replaces the love, the very thing a virgin treasures before is now be despised. The core issue of sex education is no longer on its sanity and honorability but mere functionality.

Jesus called the children of God to be light and salt to the world. Pray that our children will be equipped with God’s grace and knowledge to be able to stand on this deteriorating world.
