WHO SHOULD SUPPORT YOU?
When asked about the expected sources of support and information about reproductive health, young people mention their parents and family at the first place and their peers and the internet at the second place. The people that you trust the most are the ones that can help you when you need some information or advice. Do not forget that there are medical institutions with experts specialized in providing that you can contact at any time.
Some countries do not have thoroughly prepared or implemented strategies for improvement of reproductive health and education of youth. Serbia is one of them and it is necessary for professionals and the wider public to make some pressure in order to begin introducing sexual education into school programmes and thereby overcome this problem. In the meantime, young people in Serbia, together with their social environment, must take over the responsibility of protecting themselves the right way. Therefore, the roles of parents and other authorities in a young person’s life are very important.
