There are a lot of true stories of what women experience; young teenagers are also not excluded from these encounters. These stories are meant to provide guide for young people.
This is why their stories will be shared (although without revealing true identities) and management provided. It is also important that parents, guardians and youths have informed knowledge about sex education so as to avoid being victims or their wards been victims.
It is also essential that we (the society) do not shy away from facts about teenage pregnancy and its consequences. Young girls also fall victims as a result of their naivete and it is important this vicious cycle is broken as children of pregnant adolescents tend to also become pregnant adolescents.
Research and studies have shown that sex education whether school-based or faith-based help in the prevention of adolescent pregnancy. This prevention strategy is needed by teachers, parents, guardians, adolescents.
The dissemination of information through all medium is important which is one of the focus of Initiative For Young Daughters of Africa; getting the message across to ALL.
