Dr. Alexander's research shows that most health education programs in the United States are woefully inadequate. They often focus on outdated information, emphasize scare tactics, and fail to provide students with the skills they need to make healthy choices. As a result, our students are graduating from high school without the knowledge and skills they need to live healthy lives.

The consequences of our failing health education system are devastating. Our children are suffering from obesity, diabetes, and other chronic diseases at alarming rates. They are also more likely to engage in risky behaviors, such as smoking, drinking, and unprotected sex. These problems are not only harming our children's health, but they are also costing our society billions of dollars each year.

Dr. Alexander argues that we need to overhaul our health education system. We need to start teaching health education in elementary school and continue it through high school. We need to focus on teaching students the essential knowledge and skills they need to make healthy choices. And we need to provide teachers with the resources and support they need to be effective.

When Are We Going to Teach Health? is a wake-up call for our nation. It is time to demand that our schools teach our children the essential health knowledge and skills they need to live healthy lives.
