Why not teach proper history? Why not teach respect, not personal matters? Why not wait until high school for a sex course? Why not mind your own business while teaching young children? Why not? It’s none of a teacher’s business or right to teach sex ed. To be fair, some thought it should be done at school. Big mistake! Lazy parenting once again. Now they have taken it out of your hands and into their world of what’s right for YOUR KID.
It’s going over the edge just like everything the left does. Give them an inch they take a mile!

If “Uncle Joe” came into your bedroom and talked to you about these things he could possibly be charged with a sex offender crime. That’s what this teacher needs to be charged with. It is no different just because she has a degree and has the four walls of a public school around her.

Teachers have changed over the years. Do parents have a say in anything anymore?

I am an eight grader at this school, and I’d just like to say it was EXTREMELY uncomfortable, and I felt like it was unneccesary for me to know half of the things she taught.

On the other hand, I know of a teacher who was reprimanded by a school administrator because, when asked by an impertinent student if a certain practice would prevent pregnancy, responded that the only thing that is 100% effective in doing so is saying NO.

kakemeun,

Of course we would have liked to hear these details back in 6th grade. Then we grew up and matured.

Time for you to do so, too.

“witholding sex education until the parents decide it is time is not the solution for this particular society in the southwest.”

The parents should be the sole arbiters.

When parents WERE the decision-makers, the incicents you cite were very rare.

It almost sounds like you are suggesting that the state assume control of the upbringing of children. Do you know what a society that takes children away from parents “for their own good” and for “education” is called?

(BTW – I need to throw the BS flag on what you have written. There are very few 13 and 14-year-olds having their 2nd and 3rd children anywhere, including the Southwest, where I also live. I’m not saying that it hasn’t happened, but it certainly couldn’t have happened where you live more times than you can count.)

You’re all a bunch of hypocrites. At their age, you would have loved to hear all the naughty details about sex, admit it.

Boy the Peace & Love generation created shows like Sex in The City…now you’re crying…buy your kids a gun, that will make you feel better

Jay,

I think its hard to decide where the line is. Here in the southwest I can’t tell you how many 12 and 13 year olds I have attended to who were pregnant. And 25 relatives were in the waiting room happy that a 13 year old was having a baby. I can’t tell you how many 13 and 14 year olds I have seen having their 2nd and 3rd child. This is a serious cultural problem. I don’t know what the solution is but witholding sex education until the parents decide it is time is not the solution for this particular society in the southwest.
