SO true!! Good post Belle!

Yes, it should be up to the parents about how much sex education a kindergardener knows. Look at how many teachers are comimg out having sex with students.

Well......
I'm of the opinion that sex ed begins at birth. First we teach our young ones proper names for anatomy, and we go from there as age appropriate at home. As far as abstinence/birth control, surely by age 9/10 a child should understand the basic workings of bodily functions.

I cannot imagine any parent wanting to keep their child ignorant of anything, ever.
