UNDERSTANDING HUMAN SEXUALITY IN TODAY'S CONTEXT

Shalom dear Parents.

As your servant in Christ, I wish to share this great concern and issue which we parents can not deny, ignore or even think it will not happen to our own.  I have personally known of cases where a 12 year old girl gave birth early January at HSAJB and reports of high sexual activity as young as 10-11 years of age. Secondly,  the media and internet is available and pornographic materials is main sites. 
Thirdly, the govt schools have already started sexual education which sometimes is questionable as how it is taught.  We have recently heard how a school principle  had alleged groomed sexually.  Besides, all these,  our children are opened to sexual abuses which they are not aware of until they reach sexual maturity at later age which affects them emotionally and spiritually.

Thus we, the Catechetical Ministry of St Joseph Church Plentong strongly encourage  all parents who have children from 7-12  years of age to be updated, to be aware and to learn what is CATHOLIC SEXUALITY.  As parents now, we are RESPONSIBLE AND ACCOUNTABLE  in doing our  part in equipping our young children about sexuality.  The media and society do not ask our permission what our child knows about sexuality. The internet may not give the right information and management. As we are in partnership with parents and catechists, please make time for the sake of our children whom we love , sacrifice about 4 hours which will be a great investment.
