UNESCO wants to tell a five-year children about


United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has produced guidance on sex education for schoolchildren, reports The Daily Mail

The recommendations led to violent criticism from the public and religious organizations.

Information management is divided into four parts, designed for students from different age groups. In particular the five-year children are invited to discuss issues of masturbation. School children 12 years of age will be telling about the proper use of contraceptives, as well as the availability and safety of medical abortions. It is reported Lenta.Ru.

Recommendations on sex education for children are addressed to state and local authorities, as well as employees of educational institutions. The initiative aims to combat the spread of sexually transmitted infections and reducing the number of teenage pregnancies, especially among people in developing countries.

Representatives of UNESCO stated that the training manuals for two years engaged experts who have studied more than 80 scientific studies on sex education. The costs of creating standards were about 350 thousand dollars.

Despite sharp criticism from the public and religious organizations, the global coordinator of the UNESCO Programme on HIV / AIDS Mark Richmond said that the publication of guidelines does not mean that the five-year children should be taught masturbation. In his view, leadership is a recommendation, leaving parents and teachers the right to determine the age at which to discuss with your child the subjects of sex education
