They also need to know about the changes their body is going to go through in puberty, the emotions and urges they will develop and how to healthily deal with them, basic hygiene and use of deodorant, what sexual assault is and how to report it since many kids are sexually abused.
This is just not true. Kids absolutely need accurate sex education BEFORE they are ready to engage in any sexual activity. It’s important for kids to have accurate names for body parts and sex itself for all sorts of reasons. Comprehensive sex ed results in REDUCED rates of sexual activity.
Bottom line: you don’t wait until kids might be sexually active to provide sex ed. You provide it long before that point and, in doing so, can actually DELAY the start of sexual activity.
