It should be taught earlier but not at that age. I also think the education should be more detailed and comprehensive instead of this is what happens these are STI's and these are protection methods. Also don't have sex.
No, that's really weird. Age 12 to give lessons on possible birth control options or potential STD's I get, but why kindergarten?
What exactly is being taught to kindergarteners as sex education?
I think they should be taught in elementary school.
No, sex education should be taught in age-appropriate increments.
no. there is just a limit to some things and this is one of those things.
This is disgusting. Kids can't even be kids anymore. We want them to be adults so fast
I don't think they're wanting to teach them to HAVE sex, just that sex is a thing. Kids learn all kinds of things, doesn't mean they are participating. Same thing with teaching them about war (s). Not asking them to pick up guns and be soldiers, just making them aware this is life.
You realize that sex education doesn't inherently mean they are being taught about biological reproduction and how to have safe sex, that it would be learning about thier own anatomy and giving them the tools that would significantly decrease the likelyhood of that child becoming a victim of sexual asult. A preditors biggest tool in abusing a child is the childs ignorence
You must be really bored in that America that you think about such things.
Remember when people actually took parental responsibilities instead of shitting out kids on accident and demanding the government raise them?
No can't imagine needing to know about sex in kindergarden
Don't sexualize children. Their childhood is almost gone there days.
Unfortunately sexual predators don't follow that recommendation so it is important to give children the tools they need to protect themselves. Age appropriate sex ED does not sexualize children
@Subarugirl
Teaching kids about sexual desire Ans why daddy wanted to put his dick inside mommy without a condom is not called sexualizing children?
Kids that age do not understand sexual desire Ans they typically have absolutely no interest
@shaysh87 do you not understand the term age appropriate or do you need me to spell it out?
@Subarugirl
sex ed is literally about "sex" "condoms" "erections" "menstruation" "where do babies come from?" "what do breasts look like?" "what do penises look like" "are there holes in girl's vaginas?"
dad: " here son, here's my playboy magazine, this is what a grown adult woman should look like. by a certain age, girls start growing breasts and hair down in their pubic areas. Boy's penises grow bigger, darker and starts getting erections during their teenage years. Sometimes boys wake up with ejaculation in their underwear".
@shaysh87 that’s a very narrow and inaccurate description of what sex Ed is. I’m afraid you are misinformed
@Subarugirl
Either way , I don’t see how any 5 yr old would find any of this information useful or important to their daily lives at all. The right age to teach a child should be around 10 or when they see their first signs of puberty. First time I had sex Ed was around 10, last year of elementary school. I had my period around 12. I have no regrets learning it at 10. Actually I was glad I was able to enjoy time as a kid without thinking about that kinda crap
@Subarugirl
You’re only a child for a short period of time in life. Enjoy it and understand how it feels like before it is gone. I loved my childhood
@shaysh87 evidence has shown that children who are educated about their body’s using correct terminology are less likely to be sexually abused, have a healthier mentality about their body’s and later on their sexuality. Ignorance is a sexual predators biggest tool. What parent wouldn’t want to give their child the tools they need to protect themselves?
@Subarugirl
A simple “don’t let anyone touch your privates otherwise tell mommy” is enough.
Teaching kids about sex is robbing a child of their innocence and should be a form of abuse.
@shaysh87 that's why it should be age appropriate like I've continued to say. And child experts agree that is not enough and that sex ed should start as soon as your child starts self exploring. Sex education doesn't start with teaching about intercourse, it's teaching your 5 year old the anatomically correct names for their gentiles, about what kind of touching is appropriate and what isn't, and about what are safe secrets and what aren't. Teaching your 5 year old that he has a penis doesn't rob their innocence.
@Subarugirl
I don’t need to teach my kids about what sex is in order for him to know what is wrong or not. I can simply tell him that if anyone touches you there , you must tell mommy,
You’re just an idiot
@shaysh87 and you obviously have no idea what you’re talking about. Your opinion will probably change once you have children, especially if that child is ever sexually abused. I just hope that your pediatrician will be able to talk some sense into you.
@Subarugirl
Like I said , my kids do not need to know what sex in order to tell me whenever anything is wrong. A simple daily saying of “if anyone touches or does anything to your privates , let mommy know. Mommy loves you”. They really don’t need a high school lesson about sex. This itself is unnecessary and even harmful to their childhoods.
What is most important is that you need to earn your child’s trust. It doesn’t matter how much you teach your 5 yr old about sex, if you don’t have a close open ended relationship with them. Many kids don’t have close open ended relationships with their parents
@shaysh87 I never said anything about teaching a young child about intercourse, no one is saying that you should. I am, and have been from the beginning talking about age appropriate education.
You do realize the sex ed doesn't automatically equate to teaching about intercourse or sexual acts right?
@Subarugirl
sex ed is not necessary at all. this is what im saying. Tell your kid everyday that if anyone touches their privates or does anything to it, tell mommy. what is so inadequate about this? I have known kids that knew they were raped and that its wrong. They wouldn't even tell their parents. why? because the kid haven't earned the parents trust. When I was a child, I never had a close enough relationship with my parents to tell them that I was bullied in school.
Once you have a close , comfortable relationship your kid, they will tell you everything. Be your kids best friend. Mots parents can't even master this.
@shaysh87 Teaching your child what inappropriate touch is sex ed.
@Subarugirl
The line that i repeat to my child on a daily basis is not sex ed. Sex ed is a course and involves much more than that.
@shaysh87 Sex education is high quality teaching and learning about a broad variety of topics related to sex and sexuality. So yes... teaching your child about their gentiles, gentile hygiene and what kind of touch is inappropriate is considered sex education. Teaching your little boy that it's inappropriate to play with his penis in public is sex education. Teaching your little girl how to wash her vulva properly, or how to wipe to avoid urinary tract and yeast infections is also sex education. Just because you don't like the name doesn't change what it is.
@Subarugirl
Again I don’t think my kid needs to know what sex is at the age of 5 in order to tell me that there is something wrong going on
@shaysh87 no on is saying that a 5 year old should know what intercourse or oral sex is... literally no one, so that's a moot point and not what I am talking about.
@Subarugirl
I don’t think you even know what sex Ed is.
Just tell your kid, if anyone touches you there then tell mommy. Tell your kid nobody is supposed to touch them there. I don’t think this is sex ed at all.
99% of Children do NOT have any interest and will not remember...
No because they need to grow up and not be exposed to that yet.
Duh. No. They don’t even care about sex when they’re 5-9 years of age. All they care about is Roblox and Encanto. Let them be kids.
If they're old enough for "the talk" then they're old enough for sex.
Can you elaborate? What age do you personally believe they are old enough for the talk?
Proves my point as those that say yes have traits of a pedafile.
At home, not at school at that age
Of course not. Sexualization of children is a crime. Instead of teaching them morals and values, they corrupt them from an early age.
Nooo Kindergarten is way to young!
Children are innocent until puberty at least Don't take their innocence away.
Absolutely not
Yes, in an age appropriate way.
We never got taught it
kids don't pay attention that young
I voted b - i think its a bit young
They should learn when they get older
FUCK NO!
No, absolutely not!!
no and anyone who says yes is sick in the head
Yes, it should.
Absolutely not!
I remember I was horny when 4.
That’s complete BS. Sounds like tou need the class. Being horny at four is like freezing water at 85 degree.
Hell no
