The best thing for kids is to have two parents - a male and a female - who love each other and show it and who are solid rocks when it comes to setting a good example.
A lot of problems are caused by bad example but parents need to be the kids best role model. And that means that you don't let anyone take your place. If the school you have your children in teaches either immorally or amorally remove them immediately and find a situation that does not allow your children to be perverted away from your morals.
Teaching sex? Most of what they learn is the affection they see you extend to your wife/husband. They learn that what mom and dad do in the bedroom is for them only. But when they see you hug and kiss your mate, that does more for that child in re-enforcing true love outside the bedroom where most of our living takes place.
You are the only one who can answer their sex questions with sensitivity and tact. No schoolroom sex ed teacher can do that.
When my son began to date I began to have a series of talks with him. I let him know that he needed to respect his girlfriend's body. That her body as well as his is a house for the Holy Spirit. And to show that respect he should not touch her anywhere a modest two piece bathing suit would be. And that if he was not intending to get married right away they should not spend a lot of time necking. They should do things together and with friends rather than make time to be alone. He and his girlfriend married as virgins.
Because I had carefully watched out for his moral training all his life and I was in that pair who was his best example, it made talking to him much easier.
Young people are capable of withholding their sexual desires for future benefit.
