Communication Barriers Between Teenagers & Parents About Sex & Sex-Related Topics: A Survey Of Teenagers In Sex Education Class, Karen Bonnell
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

States like Kentucky have mandated sex education courses for all public schools to provide necessary instruction for teenagers.
This study identifies communication barriers which teenagers say prevent communication with their parents about sex and sex-related topics. Questionnaires were …

Introducing Aids Education In Connecticut Schools, William Sabella
Introducing Aids Education In Connecticut Schools, William Sabella
New England Journal of Public Policy
Most of the nation 's schoolchildren are not infected with the AIDS virus (HIV). Since AIDS is a preventable disease, no one need become infected.

The message of prevention, however, is controversial, since it must include advice on safer sex and drug use.
In 1984, Connecticut was forced to face the issue of a child with HIV infection entering school. The state responded by creating guidelines for prevention of disease transmission in schools and by subsequently developing an AIDS curriculum. Obstacles to …
