Physical and Emotional Risk of Early Sexual Activity This lesson emphasizes that early sexual activity is a high - risk behavior just like smoking, drinking alcohol, using illegal or non - prescribed drugs that can impact a person ’ s present and their future. Using the Star Poster and focusing on the risks of early sexual activity, it will be revealed that the impact from sexually intimate behaviors goes beyond the common physical risks of disease and pregnancy to effect a person emotionally, socially, mentally and spiritually/morally. Through a classroom activity using candy and a student volunteer, risk is demonstrated and proceeds from the physical risk of sexually transmitted infection to an additional glove demonstration underscoring the full - person impact that occurs as a result of sexual behaviors. Students will be encouraged and empowered as they understand the five dimensional impact of personal decisions and the importance of personal boundary setting.
