Educación sexual ¿tarea para los padres?: Abordaje desde una perspectiva crítica a la política educativa contemporánea de Puerto Rico

Abstract

Sexual education in schools will be addressed as part of the proposal set forth in Law 85 of 2018: Puerto Rico Education Reform Law through this article. A reflective analysis will be presented from a philosophical point of view through the classical educational exponents. Sex education will be triangulated, with educational policy and social policy to visualize it through the framework in childhood. This will be reflected in a cultural context and will be addressed around the history of public policy on sexual education, sexuality, and sexual abuse in Puerto Rico. Sexual education is being viewed as an inherent part of the children’s rights. All of the above will be analyzed from a critical perspective with a transforming proposal as a conclusion.
