The plan of the Department of Health

to distribute condoms to high schools.

Condoms are an effective method of

preventing pregnancy.

Condoms are an effective way of

protection against HIV/AIDS and other
STIs.
 Distributing condoms to high school
students would mean that the DOH is
condoning teenagers to engage in
premarital sex.

The distribution of condoms to high

school students can decrease the
rates of HIV/AIDS Infections.

The plan to distribute condoms will just

expose the youth to pre-marital sex
and risky sexual activity.

Distributing condoms to high school

students would encourage the youth to
practice safe sex.

Condom distribution programs will

lead the youth to make more
responsible decisions.
The distribution of condoms is an act
of immorality and interferes with my
religious beliefs.
Distributing condoms to students will
protect them from
unwanted/unintended pregnancy.

The rates of teenage pregnancies will

decrease because of condom
distribution programs.

Condom distribution programs take

away the rights of parents to decide
whether their children should have
access to contraceptives.

The condom use and distribution

should not be stigmatized.

Distributing condoms will increase the

frequency of sexual activity among
students.

The government should invest more in

educating students about the dangers
of premarital sex rather than procuring
and distributing condoms.

The distribution of condoms should

also be accompanied with counseling
sessions.

Parents should be the ones to educate

their children about the matters of
sexual activities, so that they would
not be encouraged to practice them at
a young age.

The school should be a safe space for

students to feel that it is okay to talk
about sex and other sexual health
concerns.

The school, since it is a Catholic

institution, should not be teaching
sexual education to their students and
should just focus on strengthening the
Christian values of modesty, purity,
chastity, and morality among students.

The school should conduct a program

regarding sex education and the
proper use of contraceptives, so that
the stigma would be removed.

The school should provide counseling

services regarding sexual health
concerns.
