Dilemmas and Challenges of Implementation of the Subject Education for Family Life in Polish Schools

Abstract

tract A specific challenge for Polish schools at the time of “digital emigrants” is a proper implementation of the content of sexuality education among young people to responsibility, sensitivity, tolerance, respect, love and the understanding of chastity. A restrictive model of sexual education, called type A (abstinence – only education) is realized now in the framework of the subject education for family life (WDŻ) in Poland. This model finds its exemplification in Christian pedagogy and opposes permissive and hedonistic education. This article brings the dilemmas and difficulties connected with the realization of restrictive, family-oriented model realized in the Polish education system on the subject education for family life.
