No. Not under the proper circumstances.

Is that seriously the extent of your argument? "They like it, therefore we should keep it from them?"
It's hilarious: do you actually live in a world where every kid in school isn't connected to the internet through at least one device that is perpetually with them?
Would you want the school to give them porn to read since they're going to read it anyway?

They have sex because their bodies have reached the developmental stage where they can start procreating. They may not really be fit to do it, but leaving them ignorant of it all doesn't help.
We don't have to leave them ignorant.
