PARENTS should openly discuss with children reproductive health issues to prevent the spread of AIDS among the youth, reports Daniel Edyegu.
The former deputy dean of the faculty of medicine at Makerere University, Dr. Sam Luboga, said most parents were leaving sex education issues to teachers and children's peers.
"They think if children don't know about sex, they will not do it. But they will end up doing it the wrong way," he said in Tororo.
