The debate about whether sex education helps teenagers learn more about sex or encourages teenagers to have sex has never stopped. Recently, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention conducted a survey on sex education called "Correcting the Name". After years of investigation, they found that timely sex education in schools can effectively delay teenagers' first sexual behavior and greatly reduce pregnancy and other accidents.

The survey began in 2002, and interviewed teenagers aged 0/5 to 0/9 in the United States. The researchers found that for teenage boys, after receiving good sex education, the proportion of them having sex before the age of 15 decreased by 7 1%. Among girls of the same age, the proportion of having sex before the age of 15 decreased by 59%. Not only that, the researchers also stressed that sex education will also increase the chances of taking effective and reliable contraceptive measures when teenagers have sex for the first time.

In the past, sex education in schools was always accused of "failure". However, the results of this latest study prove that sex education for teenagers has been widely promoted, and they received sex education earlier, so sex education has played a very good role.
