Lera Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I'm almost sure I spelled it wrong but I'm also sure you get what I mean. Today is the international day of fighting with AIDS. I just want to know if there was anything special AIDS connected in your country today. Like, we had a lecture in school. It was about relations between people with AIDS and healthy people. How it's important to not discriminate people with AIDS, because they're also people and their sickness is not the reason for aversion and all. They also were talking about sexual relationship with such people, how we all should use condoms and all that stuff. Nothing new to tell the truth but I'm glad that Russian schools don't ignore that problem. Though I'm not sure any of the children and teens in my school were interested in this lecture. All they were happy about is that they didn't have to go to the maths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gitta Rensolo Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I think in our school there wasn't even a mention of it.......but think there is a lot about it on german TV.....and maybe I didn't know that there was something in our school...because we are the seniors and heard those things veeeeeery often....maybe they tell those things to the students in 8th grade (when they are 14 or 15.....);) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambergris Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I've seen a lot of this on tv... specially on MTV. I think this is really good. AIDS is killing right now a lot of people and many are not even aware of this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lera Posted December 1, 2006 Author Share Posted December 1, 2006 Huh.... That's weird.... I thought that if even in Russia people talk about that then there must be at least a mention in other countries. There's even a concert in my city today.... Nothing special, just some bands (Splean :blush:), but this concert is also related to the AIDS day. And we have all these red ribbons on every corner.

blackchickintheback Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Uck, I'm sick so I didn't go to school today. I was going to wear a red ribbon around my wrist too. And my sig! I did it yesterday! :D Oh! And if I had the money I'd buy some of that INSPI(RED) stuff and the red moto razr and the red ipod... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceOddity Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I can't believe how many ppl said there was no mention of it in their schools! :o Education is the key to prevention, and maybe even a cure one day. I wish schools would realize this instead of sweeping an uncomfortable subject under the carpet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petit Prince Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 They never metioned that day at my schools. They definitely should do that in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
