8. Thirty-Nine Percent of High Schoolers Know How to Use Condoms
Research shows that only 39% of high school students know how to correctly put a condom on. There are a few potential reasons for this. Some parents don’t want their children learning the particulars of sex at school, because they think this may encourage them to engage in sexual activity before they’re ready. However, some parents are also so uncomfortable discussing sex with their children that they pray for a school-led sex education class to do the work for them. Either way, the number of teenagers who know how to use condoms the right way should definitely increase for the prevention of teen pregnancy and to keep sexually transmitted infections from spreading.
