Even though sex education is being taught in many schools across America,
             this topic has been in hot debate for years. Opinions on whether it should
             be taught range from the idea that teaching it will decrease teen pregnancy
             and sexually transmitted diseases to the belief that it should be banned
             nationwide. Those who agree that sex education should be taught in school
             also believe that this type of education needs to start as early as
             kindergarten to ensure sexually responsible adults. Those who don't agree

             overwhelming curiosity to go out and do what is forbidden. So, by teaching
             that sex is bad and full of risks and deadly diseases, more than likely, the
             teens will want to go out and 'do it'. Many teens feel that they are
             invinsible to pregnancy and diseases anyway. They won't use what they have
             been taught in school. Many seem to have the idea "that it can't happen to
             me". All they rea...
