Sex education in the Internet age

The Spanish government wants to introduce sex education earlier in schools. In the conservative daily ABC Antonio García Barbeito questions the sense of sex education in an age when sex is omnipresent: "The government wants to introduce sex education in schools for 11-year-old students. I hope it will work, but I'm very much afraid that while the kiss is being dealt with in the classroom - after everything they've seen on television, in the magazines and on the Internet - the children will already be onto sado-masochism and partner-swapping. As a comparison, that would be like learning what a drizzle is in a country where the downpours never stop. Good luck!"
