First, it is usually government mandated. Second, many parents simply do not take the time to discuss general health issues. Third, many school systems use health class as a springboard for sex education. Fourth, with the widespread incidences of disease on the rise globally our students need to know what they can do to protect themselves. Fifth, in the advanced grades, often times students can earn first aid/CPR certification to aid in their journey to successful citizenship.

(1) some parents find it extremely hard to talk to their children about some aspects of health education (2) some parents do not know what is unhealthy. (3) children are more prone to listen in a group of their peers than they are when they are just with their parents.
