Such assumptions make the parents have little or no time of advising their children on how to live while at school.
In most of the traditions and cultures in various communities, you realize that it’s a taboo for parents to discuss sexual matters with their children.
They are therefore left on their own advice and understanding of such matters which later leads them to downfalls and troubles.
