Forum on Educating Teens for Safe Sex Practice

http://www.sgclub.com/singapore/let_kids_watch_6860.html

Just happened to stumble over this forum discussion of the show 'Play Safe' by Necessary Stage and read through the postings of the members...

I think it is so true that kids nowadays are different and not just the 'gor li' and 'zero point' can satisfy their childhood, also realised that peer pressure is really a main thing that drove lots kids into trying stuff they may not not even have heard of... just because they wanna 'click' with their friend... hiyo...

But anywhere, just thought that is really cool that sg people still has their thoughts about it and feel that it is important to either educate the outrageous kids about sex..

Personally felt that contributing factors would also be the changing medium of information (mainly the internet, which is so easily available and virtually no restrictions) and how is information translated via tv, adverts, magazines and even newspaper.

Blood and violence reports are shown in newspaper / tv and all the more on internet where there isn't any moral standards. Much more sex is potray to public ever so openly, magazines / posters etc. etc., and the worst of all in the Internet, and some really tweaked even the adult's minds and moral standards, let alone children when they see it... Very very wicked, I think.

If the media passing these information are so open about it, some that are totally out of the norm moral standards; yet parents, teachers and even the education is still so reluctant to discuss and educate kids about it, it is really inevitable that kids will turn out this way... If the world has to change to such, then maybe adults should start changing the way to educate the kid, especially on such sensitive issues.

However, judging by the forum, guess am still happy to know that young adults (which I believe most of them are) are really able to see it in the right perspective, not skeptical (though some are) but rather open and honest to discuss about the changes of society trend...
