Elsbeth Reitzema, Senior Sexual Education Program Officer at Rutgers, denies that claim. “It has spread to the world and people have always been concerned that these lessons encourage children to sexual behavior. That is not correct. We know from research that if you give children good sex education, children on average start having sex later, prepare better on that, and be more resilient. So that we encourage children to do this, that’s not right.”
