Article ToolsNo, i believe they don't. Kids need to interact with one another and same sex schools provide them with that knowledge. Im not saying that we have to let them run wild with each other I mean we also have to keep and eye on them but restricting them will only make them more angry and they'll start to hang out with the other sex wihtout you knowing. So it's better to let them interact in a controlled environment rather that o their own without parent supervision. In schools there are always guards and teachers walking aroung so kids will b estopped if they try something. I understand that student are also snaejy in various ways but if we work hard enouhg we can stop them from making mistakes like getting pregnant and other such things. The students do get distracted sometimes but they will learn how to act around the opposite sex when introduce to one another and they'll get along better.
