Special needs children are subject to the same hormonal changes and urges as other children, and need to be educated on matters related to sex.

Sex education for children in Malaysia, whether in schools or within the family, continues to raise concerns.

On the other hand, sex education should also talk about feelings, emotions, gender roles, body image, and most importantly, protecting one’s self from unwanted pregnancies and sexually-transmitted infections. They think that neither would such children understand about sex nor would they ever be sexually active, thus making sex education unnecessary for them.

Parents of special needs children may never have thought that they would have to confront issues of sexuality with their child, and may react strongly and negatively when their child begins to express their sexuality. It is important for these children to understand public and personal space, and the appropriate behaviours for each.
