Abstract | Teenagers are predominant in the adolescent period. It is a period of transition from childhood to adulthood. (Montessori, 2014). Adolescents feel curious and embarrassed about the changes that occur during this period and they find themselves drawn to the members of the opposite sex and may feel self-conscious, excited, and nervous, these teenagers try to experiment with their desires out of social and ethical norms to fulfill their sexual desires. In Indian society, sex is morally permitted only after marriage (sodhi,2004) and sex relation outside marriage is morally condemned by society(Jessica ,2015). Ethically it is clear that any kind of exploitation of sex is undesirable. But in pandemic situations like in Covid 19, teenagers spend most of their time with laptops, mobile phones, and tabs with an internet connection, the pictures lured by the youth are very much influenced by them. Due to the impact of media and peer group pressure, and they sometimes rebel against their parents and elders and seek the approval and companionship of their peers. In addition to that technological awareness and advancements in development have forced this youth to move one step toward the abolition of family customs and traditions. In this context, sexual health education is very important for teenagers to create awareness about the harmful effects of improper sexual relationships (Swayam , 2021). |
