Most of
us get our sexual health education in high school, but New Brunswick
Community College counselor suggests we may not be learning enough.
Kris
Trotter is giving a Valentine's Day presentation in Saint John on
sexual ethics, something she says isn't really covered in our
educational system. Trotter tells Tide News teachers and parents tell
her that young people are learning about the hardware, they know about
biology and sexual acts, but there hasn't been enough in terms of
managing what she calls the software.
Trotter
says it's largely about being able to accurately read someone's body
language and checking in if you're unsure. The workshop is being held on
Friday, February 14 at 7pm at Saint John High School and is being
offered through UNB Saint John Leisure Learning Courses. For more
