The role of the parent or legal tutors
(MEES, 2020. Sexuality Education: Role of the school and family) ''Sexuality education begins at home. This is where children first become aware of different ways of living and expressing themselves, and where they learn to:
understand themselves
interact with different people
receive and express affection, love and empathy
Parents can play an active role in the education of their children while respecting their values and taking their personalities into account. To do so, they can:
create a relationship of trust that allows their children to ask the questions that are of concern to them
seek out the information and support they need, in particular by participating in information sessions and drawing on the resources of the school or its partners, including the health care system
Parents act as models and influence their children’s attitudes and behaviours.''
