“It’s a good idea, if it is competently implemented,” — said a member of the all-Russian professional psychotherapeutic League (OPPL) Inna Paustovsky.

“To enter this item, as strange as it may seem, it is necessary at an early age when children are only familiar with the sphere of relations between men and women. Because if you type it in high school, when the children already have their own idea, they will trivialize and laugh at those that says the teacher”, — the expert believes.

Paustovsky recalled that many parents are not ready to have conversations on topics related to sexuality, and information, which children find themselves is not always true and correct. “This is a sensitive issues, so it is better if they will be served professionally and competently. But for this, of course, necessary introduced standards and trained specialists,” she said.
