FAMILY DIALOGUE AND COMPREHENSIVE SEXUALITY

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to diagnose the dialogue in the family related to comprehensive sexuality. The research question was: Do the families of the tenth grade of Upper Basic at the Cicalpa Educational Unit discuss comprehensive sexuality with their children? The approach used was quantitative, diagnostic, non-experimental design, descriptive scope. The population was made up of 15 tenth grade parents, in an intentional sample, since according to local reports from various organizations the problem of teenage pregnancy during the pandemic increased. The survey was used as a data collection technique and a structured questionnaire was used as an instrument. The analysis technique was inductive deductive. The results show that, in relation to family dialogue, traditional patterns of parental upbringing predominate. Regarding comprehensive sexuality, there are groups of parents who are unaware that it involves knowledge and care of the body, affection, and relationships based on respect. It is concluded that, in dialogues about sexuality, multiple discourses coexist and intervention strategies are required aimed at promoting training spaces and skills for communication regarding integral sexuality
