Ep. 141: Does Sex Education Belong in School?

What happens when kids don’t get sex ed in school? They don’t just “figure it out”—they pick up myths, rumors, and advice on social media. What they learn matters for their safety and relationships. How can parents help guide an appropriate education?

Use trusted resources like:

• National Sex Education Standards

• Advocates for Youth - Rights Respect, Responsibilities Curriculum

• Planned Parenthood’s Parent Resources
