摘要

新不伦瑞克省的性传播感染率和青少年意外怀孕率很高,表明性行为高风险。积极的亲子性健康交流可以帮助青少年养成健康的性行为,尽管据报道,缺乏可用的资源来支持照顾者作为儿童性健康教育者的角色。本研究调查了当前父母、继父母和监护人的性健康教育实践和需求,以告知开发和/或适应资源,以支持父母作为性健康教育者。父母、继父母和监护人通过电子邮件、社交媒体和海报进行招募(N = 5,462)。通过包含41个项目的“问我任何问题”调查,收集了参与者的人口特征、当前的性健康教育实践和性健康教育需求。描述性统计分析了人口统计学特征和调查变量。大多数与会者表示,他们对儿童性健康教育负有主要责任,并认为他们有足够的知识和能力来提供这方面的教育。父母报告说,他们与孩子就性健康进行了适度的交流,他们对现有资源和学校提供的性健康教育的满意度感到矛盾。三分之一的与会者表示需要更多的资源来支持校本教育和确定适合年龄的主题。了解父母对性健康教育的需求和态度,突出了省级卫生当局和学区改进的机会。建议支持资源开发,以解决新不伦瑞克省家长和监护人的具体需求。

Facilitating parent-child sexual health communication: Recommendations from the New Brunswick “Ask Me Anything” survey
New Brunswick has high rates of sexually transmitted infections and unplanned pregnancies among youth, indicative of high-risk sexual behaviours. Positive parent-child sexual health communication can help youth develop healthy sexual practices, though a lack of available resources to support caregivers in their role as sexual health educators for their children has been reported. This study investigated the current sexual health education practices and needs of parents, step-parents, and guardians to inform the development and/or adaptation of resources to support parents as sexual health educators. Parents, step-parents, and guardians were recruited via email, social media, and poster-based outreach ( N = 5,462). Using the “Ask Me Anything” survey containing 41 items, participants’ demographic characteristics, current sexual health education practices, and sexual health education needs were captured. Descriptive statistics analyzed demographic characteristics and survey variables. Most participants indicated that they were primarily responsible for children’s sexual health education and felt they had sufficient knowledge and comfort to provide it. Parents reported communicating about sexual health a moderate amount with their children and were ambivalent about their satisfaction with existing resources and the sexual health education provided in schools. One-third of participants expressed needing more resources to support school-based education and to identify age-appropriate topics. Understanding parental needs and attitudes regarding sexual health education highlights opportunities for improvement by provincial health authorities and school districts. Recommendations to support the development of resources to address the specific needs of New Brunswick parents and guardians are suggested.
