Abstract |
Culture influences the views of adolescents, even though they believe that sexual education at home is important, it is often restricted by feelings of shame, modesty, and respect for their parents. To reduce the prevalence of risky sexual behaviors among adolescents, policymakers and health experts should encourage parents to have open discussions about sexual issues with their teenage children in a gradual manner, using factual information. |
