section Summary
 
 
The film “kids” is a raw account of an urban adolescence focusing on experimentation with sex, drugs, liquor, and violence. The account examines these issues at their absolute worst. One of the issues that the film focuses on is adolescent sexuality. The opening scene depicts a thirteen year old girl losing her virginity to a sixteen year old boy, without any protection or any significant relationship. Adolescent sexuality is a truth that society has a tendency to avoid. Many questions arise in regards to adolescent sexuality. The question of sexual education stimulates an opinionated debate of whether abstinence should be promoted or whether an education on safe sexual practices should be utilized.
