Feedback:
Health teaching guidelines for adolescents regarding sexual activity include not being influenced by friends regarding sex, knowing that there is no 100% method to prevent pregnancy, learning about and practicing safe sexual techniques, and sexual activity does not harm physical strength or general wellness. Adolescence is not the time when all sexual activity begins. Sexual activity is an individual activity that is based on level of maturity.
