"I agree with you that incentives are probably the best way to get people to get the vaccine and I too want to get the vaccine to protect others because it's the right thing to do. The vaccine is the key to stop the spread of covid and try and get…"

"I feel that the covid vaccine is the key to getting out of this pandemic and that it should really be pushed to get the vaccine to save lives. The Governer of Ohio knows that incentives might be the only way to persuade people to get the vaccine,…"

"This sounds insane. Literally eating someone shouldn't be excused by mental health..... it's just wrong to let someone like that back into society and be free. He literally confessed to killing and eating someone and they let him walk free which…"

"I don't think you understand that some people just don't have time to do school work outside of school and many students don't have study halls and are involved in a lot more than you are involved in. For some people, MTSS is a necessity to get…"

"It's not useless because young teens do have sex in middle school unfortunately. We should all have been exposed at least a little bit to what sex is. If young teens are going to have sex they deserve the right to know about safe sex and know about…"

"If we made immigrating into the U.S. easier, we wouldn't have illegal immigrants. They are just trying to improve their lives. You focused on everything and everyone bad being smuggled or brought into the U.S. but you haven't considered that many…"

"I agree that many people are ignorant about sex and they need to know about sex and all related topics that go with it. "

"I agree with you because 6th grade is around the time where students start going through changes and they need to know about sex ed before they make bad decisions later on."

"I agree with you because many teens will start becoming sexually active going into high school, but they haven't ever been taught proper sex education so it can lead to STDs and teen pregnancies. We all know that teens have sex and if they're going…"

"I agree with you. Many people on this forum post have said that a parent or guardian should teach sex ed to their children, but they don't. All students and kids should and deserve to know about sex and all sex related topics."

"Here's the thing, many parents don't feel comfortable or just plain won't tell or teach their children about sex. It should be a class in schools because then nearly all kids will have access to proper sex education."

"I agree, students need to be educated on the subject of sex. It's ridiculous that schools don't already teach something other than abstinence only sex ed because it doesn't work. "

"How else are students going to learn? The internet? Parents who aren't comfortable or won't talk about it? Schools need a medically accurate and informational sex ed class so that students are informed about changes they will encounter and how to…"

"I agree with you completely. Schools are a resource for many students to learn and one of the most important things people need to know about is sex and all sex related topics. 5th and 6th grade seems like a completely reasonable time to teach sex…"

"It definitely needs to be a class in schools because many parents don't talk to their children about sex, pregnancy, or STDs. It's ridiculous that we don't have a program that teaches students how to practice safe sex if they choose to have it. "

"I don't believe that college has to be a priority, but I think it helps get more people into the workforce and helps individuals accomplish more. Personally, I want to go to college but I've had to start working now as a sophomore to be able to…"

"I strongly agree that sex ed should be required in middle school so that students can have a proper education about sex and all related topics. We need this in all schools across America so that teen pregnancy and STDs can be better prevented."

"I agree that it needs to be taught around middle school when students are becoming sexually active, because it does happen more often than one would think. Unsafe sex leads to potential risks and most of the time without proper education, pregnancy."

"I agree and the sex ed programs across the U.S. are horrible and many states don't even require it to be medically accurate. Abstinence only sex ed doesn't not work, I strongly agree with that. Students deserve to know and understand sex and that…"

"Abstinence sex ed has been proven to lead to the majority of teen pregnancies. Abstinence sex ed doesn't work, but I do agree that we need a required sex ed class in our school."

"I agree as many students and teens start thinking and engaging in sexual activities without knowing the risks they are putting themselves at. With education on the topic, teens will know how to use contraceptives. We all know that teens have sex,…"

"As much as people don't want to admit it, some people have sex at a very young age so I feel that sex ed should be taught around sixth or seventh grade, otherwise I agree with you."

"The talk only talks about puberty and it is given in fifth grade, it doesn't even touch on sex or anything related to the topic. There needs to be an actual sex ed class in middle school so pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases can be better…"

"Abstinence is definitely one of the leading causes of teen pregnancies as teaching students to not have sex just doesn't work. Students need to know how everything works and what contraceptives are readily available if they do choose to have sex, I…"

"You act so entitled about the whole situation. You've lost friends over your  decisions, you lost valuable in class learning because of your decisions. There were only about two weeks left of school and you and that group of individuals couldn't…"

"This "protest" was irresponsible and not safe by any means. What you guys did wasn't a smart thing to do and you just got pushed into the auditorium and library, disrupting classes in the library might I add, and I saw many stories of people messing…"

"It should be taught earlier just for the reason that many students start going through changes and may start exploring the idea of sex. Many people don't want to admit it, but we all know that some students have sex at a very young age and every…"

"Students are definitely not safe or smart about sex which leads to mass amounts of teen pregnancy. The schools know about the issues, but aren't doing anything about it. It's irresponsible to not teach about sex because it just leads to a lot of…"

"It needs to be taught in early middle school because that's when most students start going through changes and start teaching themselves about what sex is in the first place. If schools taught students what it is, it would prevent pregnancies, STDs,…"

"We all know what sex is, but students are left to figure it out for themselves which isn't fair. Sex ed in America needs to be rebooted, I agree with you."

"A sex ed class would definitely help students and everyone in general to be informed about a very common thing. The fact that our school doesn't already have an actual and accurate sex ed class scares me."

"Safer options need to happen sooner rather than later, but sex ed should probably be taught in sixth or seventh grade because some students start exploring it very young without knowing next to nothing about it."

"I agree that sex ed is extremely important because sex is something that almost everyone partakes in at some point in their life and people need to be informed about the topic and what the potential risks are if not practiced safely."

"I agree. America's sex ed programs are useless and ineffective to the point where it results in teen pregnancy and STDs. It's not fair that students have to pay the price for not being informed."

"I agree that human growth and development was useless and they didn't teach us any valuable information and I really don't like that. I had to figure things out for myself and students should not have to do that in order to know about sex. It's…"

"I agree that middle school is the prime time to teach sex ed to students. Students need to be informed about their changing bodies and decisions they might make. "

"I agree that sex ed should be the same curriculum across America and that it needs to be medically accurate so that students and kids can be informed. We deserve that much."

"I agree that just informing students of what is to come could help drastically. Sex ed needs to be normalized in America and not avoided."

"I agree that everything needs to be covered in sex ed for the reasons that students deserve to be educated and know what is going on in their bodies and what is to come in the future, whether they wait to have sex or they make the decision to do it…"

"I think that every state should have better sex ed, not just some states. It's not fair to students to have to learn by themselves and then take unsafe risks. Otherwise, I agree with you."

"I agree that we need better and medically accurate sex ed classes in schools. Students deserve to know the risks of having sex and what it could lead to if done without contraceptives."

"I agree that with more sex ed in the U.S, that teen pregnancy rates would drop eventually. I feel that it will be hard to mandate sex ed in schools just because the topic makes people uncomfortable even though it's a natural thing that nearly…"

"I agree with you that sex education is horrible here. Teens will have sex with or without education on the topic and without said education, it could lead to teen pregnancy and sometimes STDS. Sex education needs to be medically accurate and…"

"I agree with you as many teen pregnancies are the result of abstinence only sex ed or no sex ed at all. It needs to be taught medically accurate and overall better than what it is now."

"Exactly. I agree with you 100% that it needs to be mandatory and how it isn't already I will never understand. Schools should take the initiative and teach sex ed. It won't do any good for students to be ignorant their entire lives about the subject."

"I agree with you that sex education should be taught better and that teacher should go in depth about what to expect and everything as we get older. It seems like a good idea."

"bump"

"Schools just want students to be well rounded and not be completely stupid. Also, math and science classes have been pushed since the late 1960s because the work force is in desperate need of smart, intelligent people to lead the way for the future.…"

"It's not bad if your name is Karen, it's just your name. It might be a difficult name to have right now, since there's a chance of bullying which isn't right by any means, but it's just a name. I personally find the "Karen" memes and stories to be…"
